Ponguleti launches free online coaching for govt job aspirants
The Story in Brief
Telangana revenue and housing minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy on Wednesday (28 October 2026) launched ‘PSR Yuva Nestham’, a free online coaching programme for unemployed youth preparing for government job examinations. The initiative, run by the PSR Charitable Trust in collaboration with a private coaching institute, offers one year of training starting 28 October, with possible extension.
The trust will cover all costs including coaching, books and study materials, which can cost up to ₹1 lakh per candidate commercially. There is no registration deadline or cap on candidates. The online format aims to help youth in remote areas avoid travel and accommodation expenses. Minister Vakiti Srihari, MP Ramasahayam Raghurami Reddy and MLAs attended the launch. Details are available at psryuvanestham.in.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The programme addresses a specific barrier: commercial coaching costs that can reach ₹1 lakh per student. By removing registration deadlines and candidate limits, it opens access to state-wide applicants, particularly those in areas where travel to physical centres is prohibitive. The partnership with a private institute shifts execution risk to an experienced provider while the trust funds the service. The next milestone is uptake: without a cap, the number of enrolled candidates will test whether the online model can scale without degrading quality.
