In a remarkable achievement that reflects the transformational impact of Punjab's education reforms, 40 students from government schools have cracked the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Advanced, securing their path to prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).

From Chalkboards to Competitive Exams: The Rise of Government Schools in Punjab
Over the past three years, Punjab's education system has witnessed a silent yet powerful revolution. Through visionary governance, sustained teacher training, digital integration, and academic support, government schools are no longer lagging behind, they are leading the way. Today, students from these institutions are competing as equals with their private school counterparts in the country’s most competitive exams.
The success of these 40 students is not just a number, it’s a narrative of grit, opportunity, and outcome.
Bridging the Education Gap Between Rich and Poor
Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and his government has consistently emphasized equitable and quality education for all. With targeted initiatives to upgrade infrastructure, retrain teachers, and ensure free high-quality coaching, Punjab is closing the education gap between rural and urban, privileged and underprivileged.
Many of these 40 achievers hail from families battling financial hardships, yet their determination, combined with government-provided JEE coaching and academic support, helped them break barriers and make history.
Government Schools are Now Schools of Eminence
Thanks to the ‘School of Eminence’ initiative, Punjab government schools are no longer viewed as second-tier options. They are being reimagined as centres of excellence, where learning is holistic, competitive, and aligned with the future.
Mann Government’s Vision: Opportunity, Equity, Excellence
These students are now IIT-bound, and their journey is symbolic of a larger change, where government intervention meets grassroots aspiration. Punjab’s model is becoming a blueprint for others to follow:
- Free IIT-JEE coaching for government school students
- Teacher capacity-building programs
- Modern infrastructure and classroom upgrades
- Focus on holistic development and career mentorship
From Rural Roots to National Ranks: A Story Worth Telling
What makes this achievement even more inspiring is the backdrop of adversity. Many of these students studied under challenging economic and social conditions, yet they proved that with the right support system, talent can rise from anywhere.
Their success is not just academic, it is transformational. And it marks a new chapter in Punjab’s education story: one that’s driven by purpose, powered by policy, and led by people.
Punjab is Rising. The Future is Learning.
This is just the beginning. With the Mann Government’s continued focus on educational equity and excellence, every student in Punjab can now dream bigger and achieve better.
