The new project will for the first time test the viability of elementary education in the Hindi belt.” If it is found successful, it can be replicated in a large number of inaccessible rural schools ,adding value to elementary education,” said an HRD Ministry official .
The project will be run by ISRO and IGNOU – the former will set up technical infrastructure while the latter will develop courses and train teachers.
