Those who wish to interact or raise concerns can tweet to him with the hashtag #EducationMinisterGoesLive. This will be the fourth webinar hosted by the minister in a month. First, he had addressed parents and later released the dates of JEE Main and NEET, and on May 11, the minister will discuss on higher education. This time he has asked, through his Twitter handle, for teachers to share their concerns. It is likely that the minister would talk about the shift towards digital education, school fee, and teachers’ salary-related issues.
