After a long gap of several months of lockdown due to the pandemic situation, “The Coaching Capital Of India”, Kota is all set to begin its offline classes from September 1. After getting permission from the state government, the city prepares itself to welcome back the students on strong and positive note. The city that once was packed students of the coaching classes packed in group traveling to their destined coaching classes, the bustling streets with food stalls and warm discussions over various topics are going to retain back their glory. But keeping in mind the previous worst case scenario, the city will take necessary steps inside the premises of the coaching classes. The coaching classes will start their batches in different slots categorically from September 1 to 15 for the previous batch students and from September 1, 8, and 15 especially for the newly enrolled students.
Reputed coaching institutes such as Allen and Resonance will be fully functional while maintaining the guidelines mentioned in the SOP issued by the state government. They have also made provision for students, where they have the liberty to attend their classes both in offline and in online mode. They can get access to their online classes on the official websites of their respective coaching classes. The city which is famous for the reputed coaching institutes especially for the NEET and JEE exams will resume back to normalcy in a full-fledged manner. Students who were preparing themselves for these competitive exams from their premises of their home, or who stayed back in their hostels can now avail the offline classes according to their ease.
Talking about the safety measures taken by the government, before the reopening of coaching institutes, special arrangements has been made for vaccination of students who are arriving from another state. The coaching institutes will have to check the RT-PCR Negative report along with final vaccination certificates of the students before they enter the premises. The biometric attendance machines will have to be replaced with the traditional registers for attendance of students in coaching classes as well as in the hostels.
With a new hope while taking care of the above mentioned criteria, around 1.75 lakhs students from across the country is all set to resume their classes in Kota, the prominent coaching hub in the country for various engineering and medical entrance.
