The periodic news of student suicides in Kota (and elsewhere) are visible and grave reminders of the academic pressures faced by students in the country. By widely targeting students, Vidyartha could make the Kota ‘coaching factory’ model (Johri 2015) seem trivial in comparison.

Coaching classes of yore pose physical and monetary constraints. However, the negligible cost of ed-tech apps, predatory pricing, huge discounts, free services, and the lure of ‘competitive advantage for my child’, are likely to expand the coaching classes market.

Mitra Ranjan: Only 11.1 percent schools comply with RTE norms. So, this study's data seems unsurprising. Sadly, the state govt too has no focus on strengthening Public Education System, just like the central government which is decreasing the budget regularly.
