Mr Sanjeev Bagul is a Zilla Parishad teacher from Pune with more than 29 years of teaching experience. 10 of the 15 students whom Bagul sir teaches belong to the Katkari Adivasi Samaj. Parents of these students do not own technology of any kind, not even mobile phones. Online education was impossible for these students when the nationwide lockdown was imposed, unless technology was provided to them. Dr. Ranade of the Joshi Hospital in Pune came forward to solve this problem. 15 tablets were donated from the IWAD trust to these students on the 26 th of June as a result of Dr. Ranade’s efforts.

As a part of this extensive study, 1254 students of primary school and 1260 parents were interviewed. The study showed that, a mongst all the tech devices, smart phones were readily available in more than 90 percent of all the households across all the social groups. However, the challenge was more regarding the child’s access to these devices for educational purposes. This access was the highest for open category students and the least for tribal students. The prime reason for denial of access was the need of the parent to carry the mobile/smart phone to work. The percentage of tribal students who had to connect from uncomfortable locations was also the highest among all the three social groups, which could be because most of them were from remote locations where network connecti...
