Union Ministry of Human Resource Development (HRD) recently announced guidelines for online classes by educational institutions and recommended a cap on screen time for students.
On the appropriate screen time, HRD said that two online sessions of up to 45 minutes will be held each for classes 1-8, and four sessions for classes 9-12.
It also said that COVID-19 pandemic has led to the closure of schools and has impacted over 240 million children of the country who are enrolled in schools.
