NEW DELHI: The Minister of Human Resource and Development, Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ is going to host a webinar for the parents on April 27, 2020 at 1 pm.
In the webinar, Pokhriyal will address various concerns of the Indian parents regarding the academic future, mental health, and other issues faced by students.
Due to the ongoing lockdown enforced to stop the spread of COVID-19, academic activities of all the educational institutes have been put on hold.
Many schools and colleges are attempting to shift to online classes in order to complete their syllabi.
Several private institutions have reportedly asked the parents to deposit the tuition fees in spite of the requests made by the state and the central government.
“It is obvious that the parents will have many questions to ask in the current situation,” Pokhriyal said on social media.
