In a significant move to make quality education accessible to students in remote and underserved regions, Himachal Pradesh Government has collaborated with the Crack Academy to launch a large-scale scholarship initiative. The program aims to identify and support meritorious students across the state by offering them free and subsidized coaching for various competitive examinations.
As part of this partnership, a state-level scholarship test will be conducted on May 20, 2025, across 3,500+ schools in Himachal Pradesh. Students from Class VI onwards are eligible to participate. Based on the test results, selected students will receive up to 100% scholarship for coaching at local centers that will be established in all 68 assembly constituencies of the state.
Neeraj Kansal, Founder and CEO, Crack Academy, said, “This initiative is designed not only to uplift academically talented students but also to strengthen the education ecosystem in rural and hilly areas. By combining the reach of the state education department with the academic expertise of Crack Academy, the program is set to create equitable learning opportunities while contributing to skill development and of students in the region.”
