New Delhi, June 5 (IANS): Union Human Resource Development Minister Smriti Irani on Friday launched an initiative that will provide e-tutorials to students of Kendriya Vidyalayas while providing information about them on a single platform.

The 'Kendriya Vidyalaya Shaala Darpan' programme of Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan will write a new definition of e-governance, good governance, and digital India, Irani said on this occasion, adding it was a step in the direction of fulfilling Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of digital India.

"Parents will get information about their children in respect to their attendance status, performance, health challenges and entire academic record from class 1 to12. Students will have facilities of e-tutorials to enrich their knowledge," Irani said.

The project will link all 1,100 Kendriya Vidyalayas, she added.
