With prime focus on education, the NTPC, Talcher Kaniha, started a programme called Extra Class for All Pass (ECAP) for the students of Class-X in three schools in the vicinity of the plant. The special initiative focuses exclusively on students preparing for board exams in schools, namely, Regional High School, Gandaberana, Panchayat High School, Bijigol, and Pabitra Mohan High School, Kaniha.
In order to compensate for the loss in school time due to Covid-19 pandemic, the NTPC Talcher Kaniha scheduled extra classes with teachers and also provided necessary test paper books and notebooks to students.
To discuss the plan of action in the schools, a meeting was held on February 5, among teachers and CSR officials from NTPC Kaniha. In addition, a parent-teacher meeting was also organised on February 13, coordinated by the NTPC-CSR team to impress upon the parents the need to make their children study at home.
