We have thought of a plan to address the problem... it will be known as ‘school chalo abhiyan’,” Javadekar said while addressing a seminar here on International Literacy Day. Stressing that literacy, as we know it, is not enough, he emphasised on getting digital literacy to the masses. “This is not only the time for literacy in terms of reading and writing, but of digital literacy as well. “When all these challenges are met, we will be able to fulfil Prime Minister’s dream of 100 per cent literacy, digital and otherwise, by 2022, “ he added. I am new to the Ministry but we will plan on what can be done to bring complete literacy.”
