The last month was the most tedious and tiring for the Oxygenious since they were indulged in the long battle against the coaching scam. The children park of S. K. Puri was the venue of the battle. The first Baccho Ki Adalat was held on 20 th of April. The student organized their first adalat asking some questions from the coaching world especially Anand sir the Brand Ambassador and the icon in the coaching world .
The whole episode started when a girl called Khushbu went to the janta darbar of the CM Mr. Nitish Kumar. She was weeping and demanding her fee back from Anand sir which she had given as the coaching fee. It was a shocking news for us and gave us the reason to suspect the credibility of super 30 which has given all the applaud and fame to Anand Sir all over the globe. It was against his image that he only teaches 30 poor students who belong to economically and socially backward class. Soon it was opened that there are thousands of student being taught by him by taking money.
Students were demanding transparency in the coaching world. by asking 6 simple questions from them. They were demanding that instead of taking the fee as a lump sum amount it should be charged on monthly basis. so that nobody can play with the future of the children just to mint money from them. Most of the institutes give false claim about their success rate and do not reveal the true picture. The students are lured and they fell prey to these cunning people. Their list of faculties are also fake, everything is fine for few days in the beginning soon they start to show their real picture. The faculty changes to mediocre and incompetent one. The syllabus is also left incomplete or finished in a real hurry. There are hundreds of student in one batch some even ranging to thousands. All these things are not child centric in any case and show least concern about them.
Although children got very good response from the seniors and other concerned people they had to start the relay fast to get their answer. The convener Mr. Binod Singh started his fast from 15th of May which lasted up to 25th of May. After such a long battle came the silver lining when Anand sir gave the list of Super 30 two days prior to IIT results. This was a desperate effort by him to save his dignity and credential which was under suspicion and question mark. But our 5 vital question remained unanswered only for the public to ponder about and react. It was an eye opener for whole of the Patnites who have witnessed the mushrooming of these coaching industry and children being made soft target to thicken the pocket of these coaching mafia in the last few years. The craze for IIT an Medical being created by dubious advertisement and attracting people by giving wrong picture in the society.
The fast and relay fast came to an end on 25th of May the result day of the IIT coincidently it was the 8th foundation day of the Students’ Oxygen Movement too. The children celebrated this occasion and also their efforts against the coaching world who are using students in their business lust.
