Patna: Super 30, a free coaching centre which helps children of the poorest of the poor get into the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), has joined hands with a non-resident Indian for financial help. Obaidur Rahman, a businessman based in Saudi Arabia and chairman of the Bihar Foundation there, has formed an organisation called Rahman 30 which will select 30 students belonging to the minority communities from all over India every year through a screening test. These students will be provided free coaching by Patna-based Super 30 founder-director Anand Kumar. “The main objective is to give the students employable education through rigorous training. This is what is lacking for the minorities. They don’t get quality technical and job-oriented education due to their poor financial condition,” said Rahman, citing various studies. (IANS)
