Digital Literacy

- September 14, 2022


The Digi Pullampara project, was launched in late 2021, by the Pullampara panchayat in Thiruvananthapuram, to achieve 100 percent digital literacy. 3300 residents, who are all aged above 45, were taught how to use smartphones to make calls, perform internet banking and use WhatsApp and YouTube, without anyone’s help. Due to this initiative, the local body is on its way to achieve the status of fully digital literate panchayat in the nation. 

Comic of The Month

Shiva Parvati

A powerful demon threatens the gods in their heaven. They need a savior, who, Lord Brahma decrees, will be the son born to Shiva and Parvati. But Shiva, a badly-dressed, untidy, solitary ascetic, seems to enjoy bachelorhood. Even Parvati's unmatched beauty aided by Kama, the god of love, seems unequal to the task of enchanting the stern lord. This illustrated classic is based on Kumara Sambhava of Kalidasa.
