States Mandate Newspaper Reading in Schools

Two states in India, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan, have recently made it a rule for students in government schools to read newspapers every day.

This is done during the morning assembly.

The idea is to help kids read more, learn new words, and understand what's happening in the world.

It's also hoped that this will make children spend less time looking at screens.

Reading newspapers can make kids think more and understand things better than just scrolling on a phone or computer.

Some schools have been doing this for a long time, but now it's becoming a official rule in these two states.

It's believed that this will also help students do better in exams and be more aware of current events.
