Emotional intelligence of an individual plays an important role in one's well-being and so does stress. The present study endeavoured to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence and academic stress of school going children using descriptive survey research methodology on a sample of 50 male students of classes IX-XII from government schools. Data was collected by administering the Multidimensional Measure of Emotional Intelligence (MMEI) scale and an adapted version of the Students' Academic Stress Scale (SASS). The study revealed that there is no significant relationship between emotional intelligence and academic stress of school going children.
