Work-from-home and study-from-home might have seemed like solutions during the
covid pandemic, but not entirely. Amaan Asim, a political science student of Ashoka University, realised that study-from-home for engineering students presented a challenge: “For their projects, engineering students need laptops that run on higher configurations. These were previously available in the college lab or some students could afford to purchase them. But for students from economically lower strata this was not possible and the closure of colleges became all the more challenging for them,” said Asim.
