Amma Vodi’s Laptop Rather Than Financial Aid

YSR Jagan Mohan Reddy, the state chief minister, has launched the second phase of the Amma Vodi project. During the event, he reminded residents that many impoverished students were unable to access online lessons due to the state’s shutdown since they lacked access to devices such as computers and smartphones. As a result, beginning next year, beneficiaries of the Amma Vodi plan with children in grades 9 to 12 would be able to choose a laptop instead of receiving Rs 15,000 in financial support. Students who participate in the Vasati Deewana Scheme can also choose this option.

Andhra Pradesh’s government plans to implement computer literacy classes beginning in eighth grade so that kids in government schools can compete with students in private schools. The infrastructure of government schools will renovate, according to the Chief Minister, so that children receive a proper education. The Amma Vodi initiative will help reduce dropout rates and boost student attendance. If a kid is absent from school for more than three days, the workers must go to the student’s home to enhance his or her punctuality. The school’s bathroom service would deduct from the financial support of Rs 15000. As a result, parents will have the right to challenge the poor conditions of school toilets. If the bathrooms are in poor condition, students can make a complaint by dialing 1902.
