Some of the students of TMREIS schools have taken up expeditions in different parts of the world including scaling the Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest point in Africa, and Mount Elbrus in Russia, while others participated and won awards in various indoor and outdoor game events.

The TMREIS management will get in touch with the Sports Authority of Telangana State and other sports schools in the State and seek their help in arranging for training. “Preferably a college in the city will be designated as School of Sports Excellence as here we have access to experienced trainers, proper grounds and big stadia. Also, experts can visit the college and guide the students,” said Khan.

The students admitted in these colleges are given special coaching for IIT/JEE, NEET, EAMCET, CA, CPT, CLAT, UPSC , NDA, LAWCET etc. for getting admission in premier institutions like IIT, NIT, AIIMS, NALSAR etc.,” he said.
