“Reducing the loss of human capital with the help of digital platforms and improving the quality of life through technology and providing equal educational opportunities for all have been the avowed objective of the country,” said the Education Minister.
He said, “India adopted a multi-pronged strategy during COVID-19 through E-learning platforms, digital libraries, DTH, Web Portals and radio education to impart value education to the students.”
Education through Internet to strengthen the portals of National Digital Education has been among the objectives of the Government, asserted Pradhan.
