Doctor Turns Hospital into Free Civil Service Coaching Hub
13 Oct
Summary
- A hospital provides free coaching for civil service exams on weekends.
- Tribal youth travel 40km for educational opportunities.
- The initiative is inspired by the doctor's mother's legacy of service.
Dr. N. Mageshwaran, a pediatrician in Mettupalayam, has established a unique weekend coaching center within his Supa Hospital. This initiative specifically targets tribal youth from the remote Gopanari settlement, who journey 40km to attend classes aimed at civil service exam preparation.
Students receive free coaching, travel support, meals, and modern study resources, ensuring financial constraints do not impede their aspirations. Dr. Mageshwaran’s philosophy is rooted in the belief that education is the most effective remedy for social inequality.
This dedication to service is inspired by his late mother, Dr. N. Sushila, who provided decades of free medical care to underprivileged communities. Her impact profoundly influenced Dr. Mageshwaran, prompting him to continue and expand her legacy.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Mageshwaran provided a free fever clinic and offered his hospital facilities to authorities. He also runs a free library with over 30,000 books and supports local athletes, demonstrating a broad commitment to community upliftment.
