Bihar: For 2 Hrs Every Morning & Evening, Sasaram Station Becomes Coaching Hub For Civil Servant Aspirants
Thousands of students use it as a coaching centre for clearing their competitive exams and go to study there for two hours every morning and evening.
Sasaram railway station in Bihar has become a knowledge hub as thousands of students use it as a coaching centre for clearing their competitive exams.
Sasaram, a city in Bihar is well known for its railway junction. That is because both platforms 1 and 2 of the railway station turn into a coaching class for young people who are aspirants for civil services.
This is followed for two hours every morning and evening.

This is being followed since 2002-2003 after a small group of students started coming to the station for study. After this, aspirants made this junction a hub to study and for coaching as well.
The reason students come to this junction is that this station has electricity 24/7 and because small cities in India face severe power crises, this is a viable option.
IAS Awanish Sharan also recently took to Twitter to talk about this great initiative. He talked about the history and how this coaching hub functions.

The station doesn't just cater to civil services aspirants, students preparing for The Indian Administrative Service, multiple bank examinations, even IITs and IIMs study here. Senior students even give coaching to juniors.
Now the Sasaram railway station study groups have become an institution. Senior students ¡ª both those who have been successful and those who have not ¡ª come to the station to coach younger boys in what has become a ritual over the years.

The station has acknowledged its role in shaping careers and has actually issued 500 identity cards to the boys to enable them to come.
This totally is a great initiative.
