GS-II (Education, governance) and GS-III (technology). Issue: government school teachers lack digital and AI skills, widening the learning divide. Policy: NEP 2020 and state training programmes promote tech-enabled teaching. Implication: gains depend on devices, connectivity and teacher capacity. Way forward: pair training with infrastructure, local-language content, regular assessment and ethical-use safeguards.
