The digital class initiative is not to remove teachers from the education system but to help them, Srihari said. The initiative would be extended to all schools by the beginning of 2017 academic year, he said.

The initiative has been started in accordance with Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao’s emphasis on human resource development for realising the dream of making Telangana a ‘golden’ State, Srihari said.

Observing that a digital revolution is taking place across the world, the IT Minister said rapid growth can be achieved with the help of modern technology. The Government is also working on providing Internet connection to all households in the State, Rao added.
