The Uttar Pradesh government is preparing to distribute free smartphones and laptops to students from the second week of December. A dedicated portal ‘DG Shakti’ has been created for this which will soon be launched by the Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Through this portal, the distribution of smartphones and tablets and content will be given to the students. Apart from this, information about smartphones and tablets will be given to the students from time to time on their mobile numbers and mail IDs.
As a relief to students, they are not required to register anywhere to get free smartphones and tablets. The entire system, from registration to smartphone and tablet delivery, will be free.
The data of the students are being given to the university by the colleges and the data feeding of the students is being done at the university level itself. Till Monday, the data of about 27 lakh students have been uploaded on the portal. The process of data feeding of the remaining other students is also being expedited.
