In a move championing digital inclusion, Delhi Legislative Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta unveiled the Savitri Devi Goyal Institute of Computer Education and Reading Room in Nangloi’s Raghunath Dharmshala on Sunday. Labeling it as another stride towards ‘Developed India,’ Gupta underscored the center’s role in equipping youth with indispensable tech skills.
‘Digital literacy is now integral to true education,’ Gupta stated, reflecting on how computer proficiency has evolved from optional to mandatory in the modern era. The event, hosted by Seva Bharati, aims to provide free or low-cost access to computers and quiet study areas for local students.
Drawing from personal experience, the Speaker reminisced about his university days, hunting for serene spots like the iconic Ratan Tata Library near Delhi School of Economics. Such environments, he noted, are goldmines for competitive exam prep, from civil services to other high-stakes tests.
Gupta called upon residents to actively support the center through donations of books, time as volunteers, or monetary aid, transforming it into a true community asset. He commended the efforts of Seva Bharati and the Goyal family in setting up 15 state-of-the-art computers alongside a specialized reading zone.
This isn’t just infrastructure—it’s a launchpad for under-resourced talent, Gupta asserted, particularly benefiting economically disadvantaged children with digital learning tools and a nurturing academic atmosphere. The initiative promises to cultivate discipline, service orientation, and a passion for knowledge among the youth.
RSS leader Vishal reinforced the message, highlighting collaborative efforts in education and social progress. He predicted the institute would empower budget-constrained students by offering affordable tech training, enabling them to master digital competencies and chase ambitions with renewed vigor.
As similar centers proliferate, they will collectively elevate community standards, ensuring no bright mind is left behind due to lack of facilities. Gupta’s vision paints a future where every neighborhood contributes to India’s development narrative.
