It was accepted by Shri. T. N. Mali, personal assistant Secretary of the Director. He said, “Demand made in the memorandum was right but suggesting students from primary schools to use cell phones for collecting information from websites was wrong. We shall see how it can be included in the curriculum and will contact you in case of need.”
