UK Muft Tab Yojana to Help Students in Wake of COVID-19
Covid-19 lockdown necessitated online teaching in 10th and 12 class in govt. schools and colleges. However, students in aspirational districts who are not equipped with smartphones, internet and other e-learning material lagged behind. Aspirational districts are backward on parameters like education, health and nutrition, agriculture, water resources and basic infrastructure. The tablets under Uttarakhand Muft Tab Yojana can be used by students as per their convenience.
The study material will be loaded in tablets given under UK Free Tablet Yojana and will be accessible without internet connection. Each tablet will have a 10-inch screen and will have high-resolution quality so that it has no adverse impact on the eyesight of students.
CM even mentioned that Children are our future. The state govt. has started Vatsalya Yojana to take care of children who have lost their parents to the Covid pandemic. They will get a monthly allowance of Rs 3,000 under the scheme up to the age of 21. Now govt. has decided to provide free tablets for the students of Class 10 and 12 and colleges.
