Speaking on the occasion, Suresh Kumar said that during this COVID-19 critical period where online classes are the order of the day, the new App- ‘Vidyawin’ has been launched across the State to help SSLC students explore the inherent benefits of online education and to educate them on the opportunities that online education provides.
