BSF centers to assist youths in preparing for competitive exams
Generally, youths from remote areas don't get a chance to compete with the mainstream for employment despite their talent and eligibility, BSF said adding it's also due to lack of awareness about the application process. The centers would assist youths in preparing for competitive examinations and help them in the application process, create general awareness in schools/colleges, and distribute pamphlets about the recruitment.
