Many kids forced to miss school as pandemic hits education in India

Description

New Delhi, Oct 16 (EFE).- Streets filled with children in a New Delhi slum during school hours is a sign of the effects of seven months of Covid-19 lockdown in India, a situation that, in many cases, will end up in school dropouts.With some 250 million students, the official reopening of schools in India on Thursday was only on papers, as most of the states decided to extend the closure amid a continued spike in coronavirus cases in the second most-affected country, with more than 7 million infections.

If the syllabus is not complete, children will not be able to concentrate on their studies and students in urban areas will have made a lot of progress more. This will greatly affect education here.
