When education becomes an obsession without empathy, it turns toxic.
In this episode of Saturday Wisdom, Dr S S Mantha examines the growing crisis surrounding India’s coaching culture, often referred to as the Kota Syndrome. Cities like Kota, Hyderabad, and Delhi have become intense coaching hubs for competitive examinations such as JEE and NEET — but at what human cost?
This episode explores how extreme competition, lack of emotional support, and an exam-centric mindset are pushing students into anxiety, depression, and, tragically, suicide.
🔍 Key issues discussed:
• The rise of coaching hubs and exam obsession
• Why students experience burnout, anxiety, and hopelessness
• The alarming suicide statistics linked to coaching pressure
• The lack of empathy and mental health awareness in coaching ecosystems
• How parental expectations and societal narratives worsen the crisis
• Why marks and rankings cannot define a child’s worth
• The urgent need for systemic reforms in education and assessment
This is not an argument against learning or ambition.
It is a call for balance, empathy, and humane education.
