Digi Library: Free App To Bridge Rural-Urban Educational Divide

Social entrepreneur and founder of Thinksharp Foundation (TSF) Santosh Phad has launched a free app to overcome the rural-urban educational divide and pandemic-induced school dropouts. In the absence of physical classes, the app ‘Digi Library’ yields quality books on diverse topics for class four and above students belonging to lower economic settings. Reportedly, 1,000 plus school children across Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh have profited from the app.
