October 16, 2019

Deeksha, an education services company announced the launch of two new Junior Colleges in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. The campuses will be in Dwaraka Nagar & NAD areas of the city. The colleges will offer specialised coaching for IITJEE, NEET and other competitive tests along with regular intermediate board syllabus.

The Campus area in Dwaraka Nagar is 20,000 sq ft and in NAD the campus area is 30,000 sq ft. Deeksha currently has 31 campuses spread across Karnataka, Telangana, and Maharashtra. Since its inception, Deeksha has helped transform 56,000 young lives by nurturing their academic success.

Dr Sridhar, founder of Deeksha, was a resident of Visakhapatnam and one of the early students from this city to pass the JEE exam in 1985 and secure admission to the prestigious IITs. After completing his B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur and his Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Dr Sridhar returned to his homeland in 1998 with a desire to contribute to society through education. He, along with Mrs Lalit Sridhar, jointly launched Deeksha with a vision of establishing junior colleges that provide an effective and caring academic environment that nurture original thinking and create young confident individuals with a sense of responsibility towards society.

Dr Sridhar strongly believes that strong conceptual clarity and self-confidence, born from emotional wellness, are the primary requisites for academic success. Deeksha’s flagship program dCARE (Deeksha for Children’s All-Round Development) comprises of various initiatives which ensure a child’s well-being and forms the bedrock of the institute’s motto of “Nurturing Success of Every Child”. The idea is to nurture success in children through a rigorous academic environment supported by technology built around the culture of caring. Hence, children at Deeksha are encouraged to:

● Learn, not just memorise
● Study smart, not just study hard
● Be motivated by passion, not driven by fear
● Push themselves consistently and OUTPERFORM

Shedding light on the expansion, Mr Pramod Gupta, CEO, Deeksha, said, “Education, in India today is facing multiple challenges – right from the mounting competitiveness and evolving academic structure that requires constant stimuli to be at par with the best. Over the last 21 years, Deeksha has been utilising technology to build an education model characterised by continual learning easily accessible to children. We are proud to expand our avenues and reach out to children from various regions of the country.”
