Is the free laptop distribution initiative worthy
Computer education is compulsory for everyone. The present day all the children must have access to the computer knowledge to stay in touch with the dynamic technology that is the Internet. Also, laptops and computers are required to manage everyday chores such as shopping transactions, paying bills and much more. They have emerged as the communication tool. Ironically when owing a laptop has become mandatory, there are some who cannot afford them. Laptops are a prime requirement in the modern day digital world. They are necessary for all the age groups. Children need laptops to learn the computer courses and technologies. Adults may need them for educational purposes and to manage other tasks such as payment of bills, taxes and much more. Unfortunately, there are many unprivileged people who cannot afford to buy laptops and enjoy their benefits. Some people live below the poverty line where they find it difficult to manage their basic needs. Thus procurement of Internet access along with laptops is impossible for them. Due to this, the government has decided to set up special programs which are dedicated to the distribution of free laptops to people out there. Many social service programs and national organizations have come together to provide free government laptops to the low-income families.
