This new addition to Aakash BYJU’s expanding pan-India network of centres, currently totalling 330+ in 24 States and Union Territories, reflects Institute’s commitment to reaching its standardised direct coaching services to students where they live.
This is the third center of Aakash BYJU’s in Jammu, located in huge 7800 sq.ft space in prime location at Galaxy Tower opposite BSF Campus, Paloura.
The new centre has 11 classrooms and can offer direct classes to 1700+ students.
