School students are also eligible to get a laptop this time. They have to pass certain criteria to get their hands on this beautiful giveaway by the government.

This scheme creates a storm in 2013. After that hundreds of students get this gift from the provincial government every year. Initially, this scheme was for university students who have to research and learn from global papers. The main aim of this scheme was to provide students best I.T and technology for their research and knowledge. Many students who cannot afford buying laptops were happy after getting this facility.

After this announcement, many students are feeling relieved and satisfied. Since the country is uncertain economic conditions, this might be a sigh of relief for many needy and poor students.

Authorities are making sure that all needy and bright students can get this in without any trouble. Meanwhile, the public has a mixed reaction to this scheme. Some are taking it positively and progressive. Whereas others are saying that this is a waste of public resources, this scheme has no deeper benefits. How will this take turns in favor of our country, only time will tell.
