MUMBAI:
In the first such initiative in the test preparation sector in the country, Aakash Educational Services Limited (AESL), the national leader in test preparatory services, forays into the Satellite Education space with the launch of the first-of-its-kind Aakash EduTV in partnership with Airtel Digital TV, the DTH arm of Bharti Airtel, to cater to students living in remote parts (internet dark markets) of the country preparing to become doctors and engineers.
The initiative aims at training students residing in small towns, villages who do not have access to internet facility, electronic devices like laptop and smartphones for studying, by beaming lectures directly onto their TV screen. There will be separate channels for NEET and JEE/Class 9th and 10th.
Aakash EduTV will be available exclusively through Airtel Digital TV free till Oct 21, 2020, for Airtel Digital TV consumers. While Aakash EduTV-JEE and Class 9th and 10th will be available on Airtel Digital TV Channel No. 467, Aakash EduTV – NEET will be available on Airtel Digital TV on Channel No. 478. Students having Airtel TV Connection can give a missed call on 9154052478 to subscribe for NEET Channel and 9154052467 to subscribe for the JEE Channel after the free period finishes.
The programs on the channels will provide high-quality training sessions to students who aspire to become doctors or engineers and will help them excel in their lives. Class 9th and 10th students will be taught mathematics and science. The faculties will teach in simple English so that it will be easy for every student to understand the subject in detail.
