The basic motive behind the initiative is to introduce co-operation amongst the teachers and students for conducting educational research together. The Internet connection has been brought to the schools with the co-operative efforts from BMC and MTNL.
More than four lakh students from primary as well as the secondary school are expected to be benefitted from the BMC program. The civic body has allotted Rs. 2,733 crore for Education in their upcoming budget.
