NEW DELHI: The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) has launched a portal that comprehensively covers all academic and research initiatives to battle the COVID-19 challenge.
Launching the web-portal YUKTI (Young India Combating COVID with Knowledge, Technology and Innovation) in Delhi, HRD minister Ramesh Pokhriyal “Nishank” said he hoped it will help in planning and monitoring of activities related to COVID-19.
“Our primary aim is to keep our academic community healthy, both physically & mentally and to enable a continuous high-quality learning environment for learners”, Pokhriyal said in a statement.
YUKTI intends to highlight various initiatives and efforts taken by institutions in academics and research related to COVID-19.
It will also look at the social initiatives taken for the well-being of students in the COVID-19 situation.
The institutions can also share their strategies for tackling the COVID-19 situation. “The portal will also establish a two-way communication channel between the Ministry of HRD and the institutions so that the Ministry can provide the necessary support system to the institutions,” the minister said.
The portal will cover both qualitative and quantitative parameters for effective delivery of services to the academic community at large.
