IAS officer starts education programme in Maoist area
Om Prakash Chaudhary, an IAS officer in Chhattisgarh’s Naxal-affected district of Dantewada, has started an education initiative to improve the prospects of the region’s 400 science students. Under the project 'Choo Lo Aasman', students are given special tutorials for entrance examinations. This came after Chaudhary realised​ the district didn’t have enough doctors, engineers, or science teachers.
