LEAD Rahmani 30
LEAD Trust was inspired by the success of the Rahmani foundation from Bihar, which has been helping downtrodden students from all over India to get admissions into IITs and other premier institutes. Rahmani’s initiatives have succeeded in identification and support of poor bright students. Rahmani-30 was set up a year ago by Maulana Wali Rahmani of Rahmani Foundation under the auspice of Shri Abhayanand, ADGP. In its 1st year of operation itself, Rahmani-30 attained 100% results and all 10 students have secured seats through IIT-JEE. See http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/8550548.stm. As its first initiative in 2010, LEAD intends to focus on the IIT-JEE exam in Karnataka, Kerala and other South Indian states.
