Delhi to Digitally Map All Government Schools
The Delhi government is planning to digitally map all its government schools.
This means they will take detailed pictures and records of everything in the schools, like classrooms, toilets, and sports areas.
The goal is to make sure that all the repairs and new constructions are properly documented and can be checked easily.
This will help the government keep track of the work being done and make sure that the schools have everything they need for students to learn well.
A small test of this plan was already done in a school in Narela, and now they want to do it for all schools in Delhi.
This will help them plan better and improve the schools.
Delhi government to digitally map all government schools for real-time infrastructure tracking.
Pilot project completed in a school in Narela.
Digital records to include buildings, classrooms, toilets, water facilities, electricity, labs, libraries, sports, fire safety, and disability facilities.
