Haryana is the first such state. The government will give tablets to the children of class IX to XII. He said that there was a time when children wrote on slates and then on copies. Those slates have now been replaced by Tablets. The e-Adhigam scheme will prove to be a milestone in the education sector. In the coming time, many more reforms will be done in the education sector.
