However, these schools often lack basic infrastruc­ture, with some even being used for unrelated purposes like park­ing donkey-carts. Unfortunately, the quality of education in these government schools is subpar, and many lack digital facilities. In contrast, private schools boast excellent infrastructure and pro­vide students with comprehensive digital education, creating a stark disparity in digital literacy among students. It is the government’s responsibil­ity to address this issue by improv­ing the infrastructure of government schools, including the provision of digital tools for effective learning environments. Additionally, there should be focused training pro­grams for government-school teach­ers to ensure they can effectively impart computer education to stu­dents.
