408 Eklavya students clear NEET; 41 qualify for IIT JEE

Many students in India want to become doctors or engineers.

Some of them study in special schools called Eklavya Model Residential Schools.

These schools are for children from tribal communities.

This year, 408 students from these schools passed the NEET exam to get into MBBS courses.

Also, 41 students passed a very hard engineering exam to get into the Indian Institutes of Technology.

The government told the Lok Sabha, which is part of India's parliament, about these results.

There are 508 Eklavya schools across the country.

Most students in these schools passed their Class X and Class XII exams.

The government is also hiring more teachers and staff to help students do well.

This news shows that tribal students can succeed in tough exams when they get support.
