Digital class: if things continue like, only the rich will be educated.

The federal government need to see to things else, only the rich will be educated.
The federal government, state government and others are creating online platform like Whatsapp, telegram, radio, and television channels for the purpose of learning. 
Lots of students that have parents that can subscribe for them are currently participating.
The question is about the poor masses that are not privilege to have any of the platform which can serve as means of learning during this pandemic period. I can say categorically that the percentage of students participating in the digital class are less than those that are not participating. And out of those participating, most did not even understand it as they are not use to it. Also for those in lower basic, nursery and creche classes, the government need to find a way of engaging them as the digital class will look strange to them.
As there is ease of lockdown, after observing how things goes, there should be ease in resumption as well with classroom setting to social distancing, different days for each section of the school, washing of hands and other medical directives.
If things continue like this, only the rich will be educated.
