As you know, technology can play an important role in providing education to large number of people. On 20th September, 2004 EDUSAT has been successfully launched. With the availability of EDUSAT and tele-education systems available with number of establishments education can reach many remote parts of the nation. Now a teacher can teach thousands of students from a studio through number of virtual class rooms located in different parts of the country. This should certainly enable availability of quality education to all the eligible people.
