Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. West Bengal.

  1. The West Bengal state government introduced the Paray Shikshalaya plan in February 2022 as an effort to give elementary school students—especially those impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic—community-based learning opportunities especially for students of class 1 to 7 and online education for students above 8 and 8.
  2. The program lowers dropout rates and ensures educational continuity by setting up outdoor classrooms in nearby neighborhoods. Its goal is to close any learning gaps that arise from extended school closures.
  3. Paray Shikshalaya seeks to increase accessibility and inclusivity of learning, improve educational outreach, and encourage community involvement in the educational process by delivering education rights to children's doorsteps.
