Ramakrishna Sarada Samiti (RKSS), a known non- governmental organization in India, along with the State Bank of India (SBI) Foundation, unveiled an educational platform JEET with an inbuilt LMS that will provide learning content for students from more than 10,000 government schools across six States in India. The program was launched on 162nd birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda.

With the help of this web-based LMS platform, JEET is targeting to serve ten lakh economically disadvantaged students from KG to 12 by providing them with a lifelong free learning platform. The NGO alliance, JEET will partner with government schools across States such as Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Haryana and Telangana to provide educational content from classes KG – 12. Students and teachers would be able to access JEET either through a website now, or later on a mobile-based learning app very soon. RKSS also plans to train the teachers to utilize the platform for children and will conduct demo sessions for the school children and their parents as well.

Speaking at the occasion, Shri Raghu Pilaka, Director, RKSS said, “Quality education (SDG 4) is a fundamental right. RKSS has championed education for underprivileged communities for 55 years. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the idea emerged to curate vast online educational content into accessible resources for government schools. By 2023, this vision became a nationwide NGO alliance supporting every child’s education. Inspired by Swami Vivekananda’s words, ‘Educate and raise the masses, and thus alone a nation is possible’ we proudly launch the FREE Web-Based LMS.

With the goal of empowering under-resourced and disadvantaged students, JEET will offer more than 12,000 rich and high-quality educational videos in phase one and will soon scale up to 1 lakh videos. The content bank of video links available through the LMS was obtained from NGOs and organisations across India. This includes Avanti Fellows, BCPT, Educomp Mathguru, Khan Academy, Magnet Brains, Pratham NGO, Tic Tac Learn, Vimbue, V.K.R.C.E. Trust, Coimbatore, etc.

Speaking at the launch ceremony, Sanjay Prakash, Managing Director, SBI Foundation said, “Through Project JEET, we aim to bridge India’s digital divide by providing free, high-quality educational content. In partnership with RKSS, this platform will offer educational videos in regional languages, along with Hindi and English, ensuring accessibility for students across diverse backgrounds. By aligning the content with State Board syllabi, JEET complements classroom learning and supports government schools in delivering quality education. We are confident that JEET will not only expand academic resources but also help overcome technological barriers, creating a more inclusive and equitable education system for all.”
