The Government today said linkage to direct to home platforms would help widen the Swayam platform to be launched with at least 350 online courses.
Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in his budget for 2017-18 said this would enable students to virtually attend the courses taught by the best faculty; access high quality reading resources; participate in discussion forums; take tests and earn academic grades.
He noted that access to Swayam would be widened by linkage with DTH channels, dedicated to education.
However, sources in the DTH industry told indiantelevision.com that the implications of this would have to be seen as it was not clear whether the linkage had any monetary aspect to it.
