After missing online classes for 4 months, 8-year-old Hitesh is finally getting back to studies at a "Mohalla Pathshala" in a remote village in Haryana's Nuh district. He is among the 70,000 children of the district - around 70 per cent of the total - who had no access to online classes because of a lack of smartphones, TV or internet access. To fill the gap, the administration came up with "Mohalla Pathshalas". Under the initiative, local young graduates or "shikshadoots" are voluntarily teaching children in community classrooms which are set up in courtyards, rooftops or porches. Only up to 15 children are allowed in a single batch and with social distancing.
