With such a huge population a times huge problems do arises but at the same time a huge & talented human resources do knock the doors of this great nation, for opportunities and utilization of its skill, knowledge and power.

The sudden shift in the education system has created a tense environment for learning among students of various fields & academic levels. As the statistical report says majority of the population are marginalised or below poverty line.

Undoubtedly, the Government of India introduced various schemes and programmes under “Digital India Programme”, Ministry of Electronics and Information. But, the vast majority of the population are still unaware to compute and use devices.
Hence, an initiative awareness programmes to address such issues might be beneficial for the majority. Programmes like “National Digital Library of India” a magnificent and solution oriented approach by providing 4crore 60 lakh books, a priceless facility for the student community.
But to access those facility a proper internet and electricity facility is must with an awareness programme to introduce these facilities to the rural and remote regions of India, which or whose population is not only unaware but also lacking the basic facility to access such benefits.

Thus, a channelized approach and equal informative facility environment will bring golden names who will contribute in every field, Science, Arts, Literature, Engineering and Medical etc.
