Opening schools is the and (sic). Are we so blind to realities on the ground?” Mona Lisa Bal, chairperson of KIIT International School, said the budget was a hit-and-miss for the education sector. “While it has finally addressed and recognised the learning loss the pandemic has created, the need to develop the digital infrastructure of the country was not adequately focused on in the budget. The economically disadvantaged students especially in rural areas have lost essential years of education and introduction of supplementary teachers was highly necessary. “Supplementary education can help bridge the gap to a large extent. Increase of ‘One Class-One TV Channel’ from 12 to 200 TV Channels to provide supplementary education in regional languages for classes 1-12 is a welcome move but it will not be enough,” Bal said.
