Erstwhile, the children in Haryana had less interest in education and in government jobs, the recruitment process was not done in a transparent manner. But in the year 2014, under the leadership of Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal, the state government took up the task of creating an environment of education in the state, so that children will get more interest in studies.  As a result of the transparent recruitment system adopted by the state government in the last about 8 years, the interest of the students towards education has been increased significantly and their confidence in the functioning of the government has also increased.

Today, the students are not only being provided with quality education, but they are also being given special coaching so that they can take admission in the highly reputed educational institutions of the country.  The Srate Government has taken rapid steps in the direction of improving the standard of education, under which special emphasis has also been laid on the education of daughters.

In this era of increasing technology, new e- Learning methods are being used in the education sector. In recent years the trend of online education is rapidly increasing.  Keeping in view the requirement of the students, the Haryana Government has recently launched the ‘e-Learning’ scheme.

Through this scheme, a revolution has been initiated in the field of education by distributing tablets to the students of government schools.  Under this, tablets were provided to 5 lakh children.  With the help of these free internet and Personalized Adaptive Learning (PAL) availability on these tablets, the students will not only crack their board exams with good marks but will also be able to prepare for NEET, JEE and other competitive exams.  Apart from studies, they would also be able to enhance their other skills using this tablet.
