PSR Yuva Nestham, a free online coaching initiative for unemployed youth preparing for government job examinations, was launched in Hyderabad on Wednesday by Telangana Revenue and Housing Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy. The programme will provide one year of online training, along with books and study materials, beginning October 28.
The initiative has been launched by the PSR Charitable Trust in collaboration with a private coaching institute. According to the details reported at the launch, the trust will cover the full cost of coaching and study materials, which can otherwise cost candidates up to ₹1 lakh.
There will be no registration deadline and no cap on the number of candidates, the organisers said. The programme will run for one year and may be extended if required. The announcement did not specify the total number of candidates expected to enrol or provide details of the examinations that will be covered.
The online format is intended to make government-exam preparation accessible to candidates living outside major urban centres. By removing the need to travel to coaching hubs or pay for accommodation, the programme is designed to reduce two of the costs commonly associated with long-term competitive-exam preparation.
The initiative was launched on the minister’s birthday. Minister Vakiti Srihari, MP Ramasahayam Raghurami Reddy and several MLAs attended the event. The programme is being presented as a charitable intervention rather than a government-funded coaching scheme, with the PSR Charitable Trust bearing the costs.
The launch also places digital delivery at the centre of an employment-support programme for youth. Candidates who would otherwise have to relocate or commute for coaching will be able to access the training remotely, although the supplied announcement does not provide details about the platform, course schedule, faculty, examination coverage or support for students without reliable internet access.
Interested candidates have been directed to visit psryuvanestham.in for further details and registration information. Training is scheduled to begin on October 28, with the organisers stating that the programme may continue beyond its initial one-year period if necessary.
