Kota Factory is a Reflection of Reality

The show makers have named it aptly - Kota Factory. Many like me used to know Kota as a centre of education, a mecca of coaching for aspirants aiming to get selected in medical colleges and IIT institutes. Thousands come here every year to find admission in the reputed coaching institutes, who have made a name in preparing boys and girls for the extremely competitive selection exams. The youth many still in their teens are made to pass through rigorous study schedule day after day. Their problems, struggles, emotions and all other related issues are deftly picturised in the black and white show Kota Factory. As a teacher and as a parent of a medical student I found the episodes to be a reflection of reality. The show also depicts how the coaching centres make huge business out of the desire to become doctors and engineers.
