e-UGshala Initiative to Be Launched in December: Smriti Irani

Union Human Resource Development Minister Smriti Irani on Monday said e-UGshala initiative will be launched on December 25 to enable open access to digitised contents for undergraduate learning. "We have 29 undergraduate texts, visuals self-assessment sheets and books in social science, science and languages. I will dedicate e-UGshala to the nation on December 25," she said here at an event on Sunday.

After digitisation of the undergraduate level content, the next step is a e-PGshala for post graduate education. The minister also talked about making the e-pathshala available on mobile phones to enable access to children in remote areas.
