The Haryana government has started the process to distribute free tablets to all the students from class 8th to 12th studying in government schools before the next academic session starts. As many as 8.20 lakh tablets, preloaded with learning material and textbooks, would be distributed to enhance the learning of students and help them study online at home and in the classroom.
Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal presided over a meeting of the school education department on Monday to review the preparedness for distribution of tablets. It was decided in the meeting that these tabs would be issued to the students on the pattern of library books, and students would have to return them after their 10th and 12th exams.
