Notwithstanding the limitations caused by COVID-19 pandemic, the IGNITTE team provided coaching to the students through telephonic conversation for a period of five months. The students were helped by IGNITTE mentors for an average of 12 hours per day.

Earlier, two government school students - Sethupathi of GHSS and Pugazharasi of GHSS Manachanallur who were also trained by the IGNITTE team secured admission in EEE and MME departments at NIT-T after clearing the Joint Entrance Examinations.

Congratulating the IGNITTE Club’s success, NIT-T Director Mini Shaji Thomas said the institution will sustain its initiative in this direction in the coming years.
