Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday, August 15, 2026, announced a major initiative to provide free online coaching for students preparing for various competitive examinations. The announcement was made during his Independence Day address from the Red Fort in New Delhi.
PM Modi said expensive coaching classes have become a financial burden for poor and middle-class families. The proposed initiative aims to make quality exam preparation accessible to students from different parts of the country without requiring them to move to major coaching hubs.
The government is expected to use digital infrastructure and qualified teachers to deliver the coaching online. The initiative is part of a broader focus on youth development announced during the Independence Day speech, which also includes AI training for one crore young people.
The announcement could provide significant relief to students who cannot afford expensive private coaching and may help expand access to competitive-exam preparation across India.
