Bahubhashini can make education accessible to every corner: Pradhan

Pradhan further added that technology will drive the next phase of growth and development with IT and communications technology among the front runners in India

Union Minister for Education and Skill Development, Dharmendra Pradhan while inaugurating the R&D showcase in IIT Delhi, said Bahubhashini, one of the 75 projects displayed, could remove the language barriers of the country. The all-IIT R&D showcase titled IInvenTive, is the first-ever display of the projects being undertaken by every IIT in India.

Professor Pushpak, IIT Bombay while speaking to Business Standard said that “Benefits of higher education are not reaching the corners of this country because of the language barrier”. Hence the students who are more comfortable in the vernacular languages often found it difficult to follow the lectures
