New Delhi:

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday inaugurated 'Mission School of Excellence' at Adalaj, Gandhinagar, Gujarat.

During this, he was also seen sitting in the classroom with the children in the school.

PM Narendra Modi said that the recently launched 5G telecom service will take the education system in the country to the next level, as the latest technology will take things beyond 'smart facilities, smart classrooms and smart education'.

Important information related to the case:

  • The Prime Minister said that the New Education Policy (NEP) will take the country out of the 'slave mentality' associated with the English language.

    Earlier knowledge of English was considered as a sign of being intellectual, whereas the English language is only a medium of communication.

  • Modi said the mission will help strengthen education infrastructure through setting up of new classrooms, smart classrooms, computer laboratories and overall upgradation of school infrastructure in the state.

  • The Prime Minister said that the youth now have the option of studying in other languages.

    Our aim is to ensure that children of poor parents become doctors and engineers, even if they are not educated in English (medium).

  • Narendra Modi said that 5G service will go beyond smart facilities, smart classrooms and smart teaching.

    It will take our education system to the next level.

    Students can now experience virtual reality, Internet of Things and other cutting-edge technologies in their schools with the help of 5G service.

  • He said that during the last two decades, the Gujarat government has established 1.25 lakh new classrooms and inducted about two lakh teachers.
