Kathmandu, May 4th, 2020

Nepal Telecom has launched its new e-Shikshya Package for Students, Schools, and Colleges to help them stay connected with their studies. The recent pandemic of Covid 19 has resulted in a nationwide lockdown that is affecting the learning process of students. Nepal Telecom, therefore, hopes to promote a digital learning platform with this e-Shikshya Package while respecting social distancing.

What’s an e-Shikshya Package?

E-Shikshya is a special package under which users can buy 6 GB data for Rs 260 and 15 GB data for Rs 500. These packages will be valid for 28 days.
