OUR CORRESPONDENT

ITANAGAR: In a landmark achievement for education and empowerment in India’s remote regions, 38 out of 44 students from the border areas of Jang and Dirang in Arunachal Pradesh’s West Kameng district have cleared the All India Sainik School Entrance Examination this year.

Their success is the result of a free, high-impact coaching programme conducted by the Indian Army’s Gajraj Corps from July last year to April last, a defence spokesperson said.

Designed to bridge the educational gap in underserved areas, the initiative provided focused academic training and motivational support to young aspirants, Guwahati-based defence PRO Lt Col Mahendra Rawat, informed in a statement on Saturday.

Army instructors played a key role in building not just academic excellence but also the discipline and confidence needed to succeed on a national platform, he said.

This is more than just a story of exam success, it is a story of resilience, mentorship, and the power of belief. The 38 qualifiers are not only students but role models for many others across the region, proving that talent thrives even in the remotest corners when given the right support, the spokesperson said.
