After NEET leak storm, Latur’s coaching capital faces closure | Mumbai News

The District Industries Centre (DIC) ordered the Latur Industrial Estate Cooperative Society to cease all non-manufacturing activities on plots originally allotted for industrial purposes. The order, issued following a meeting with Latur Collector Dr Bharat Bastewad, warned of legal action if compliance is not met. Dr Bharat Bastewad, who chairs the meeting, stated that the administration wants to examine the legality of coaching classes operating from industrial plots and ensure all applicable rules are followed. This move has sparked concern among coaching operators and local businesses, who argue that thousands of students and livelihoods depend on the ecosystem built around the coaching industry.
