Around 50 students from nearby villages of Sopore are attending the coaching classes.

"We are thankful to the Indian Army for providing us free tuitions," said a student, Nelofar Rashid said.

Five local teachers having vast experience in the field have been selected to teach all mandatory subjects including English, Social Science, Mathematics, Science, and Urdu.
