Kickstarting distribution of electronic tablets among government school students in the national capital, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Friday asked them to use technology constructively.
Over 15,000 students, including those in classes 11 and 12 of Rajkiya Pratibha Vikas Vidyalaya (RPVVs) and School of Excellence (SoEs), and those who secured 80 per cent or more marks in CBSE class 10 board examination of 2019 will receive the branded electronic tablets, each costing Rs 11,500.
Distributing the tablets among students at School of Excellence in Kalkaji area, Sisodia said, "Technology is a tool. Take the example of a ladder. You can either climb up the ladder or come down using it. Similarly, you can achieve excellence, by using technology through this tablet or completely waste your time."
