We go on to tackle questions about learning and reading ability (as discussed in the report), and then delve deeper into the infrastructure facility, or more so the lack thereof and how this affects the quality of education received. Additionally, we talk about some of the projects the ant has undertaken to improve the situation in Assam, some of them include Project LEAP, Shiksha, Dolphin, amongst several others. Finally, we end our conversation with policy considerations that the government must come up with to handle the situation at hand better.
