“Education is a subject in the concurrent list of the Constitution, and the matter relating to education pertains to central as well as the state government concerned,” Pradhan replied.
“The states and UTs (Union Territories) have been advised to map the students school-wise with their individual performance. Accordingly, the state governments have been directed to act based on the situation prevailing at every place to meet the demands of all students for providing them with the digital access required for learning digitally.”
