&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In the Kumtu tribal hamlet of Jharkhand, eight-year-old Suman, who would now be in Class 3, has not gone to school in nearly two years, owing to the coronavirus-induced lockdown in the country, imposed in March last year. Before the lockdown, when the local government school in her village would open sporadically, Suman was doing well in her class, managing to learn some English.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;But in the two years that she was almost entirely cut off from education, she can barely even read a few words in Hindi.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Suman is one of many children in Kumtu who have lost the progress they had made in school, according to data from a Road Scholarz, a volunteer research group that surveyed villages in Jharkhand.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;But this isn&amp;rsquo;t an isolated case. The closure of primary and upper-primary schools during the pandemic and the shift to virtual education has had a devastating impact on children in India&amp;rsquo;s underprivileged households, a &lt;a href=&quot;https://im4change.org/upload/files/LOCKED-OUT-Emergency-Report-on-School-Education-6-Sept-2021.pdf&quot;&gt;report&lt;/a&gt; titled Locked Out: Emergency Report on School Education has found. The report, which was released today, was prepared by IIT economics professor Reetika Khera, economist Jean Dr&amp;egrave;ze, and researcher Vipul Paikra, with the help of nearly 100 volunteers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In the Kumtu tribal hamlet of Jharkhand, eight-year-old Suman, who would now be in Class 3, has not gone to school in nearly two years, owing to the coronavirus-induced lockdown in the country, imposed in March last year. Before the lockdown, when the local government school in her village would open sporadically, Suman was doing well in her class, managing to learn some English.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;But in the two years that she was almost entirely cut off from education, she can barely even read a few words in Hindi.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Suman is one of many children in Kumtu who have lost the progress they had made in school, according to data from a Road Scholarz, a volunteer research group that surveyed villages in Jharkhand.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;But this isn&amp;rsquo;t an isolated case. The closure of primary and upper-primary schools during the pandemic and the shift to virtual education has had a devastating impact on children in India&amp;rsquo;s underprivileged households, a &lt;a href=&quot;https://im4change.org/upload/files/LOCKED-OUT-Emergency-Report-on-School-Education-6-Sept-2021.pdf&quot;&gt;report&lt;/a&gt; titled Locked Out: Emergency Report on School Education has found. The report, which was released today, was prepared by IIT economics professor Reetika Khera, economist Jean Dr&amp;egrave;ze, and researcher Vipul Paikra, with the help of nearly 100 volunteers.&lt;/p&gt;

‘Catastrophic consequences’: Only 8% of rural children regularly attended online class during lockdown -Diksha Munjal

-Newslaundry.com A new survey titled Locked Out notes that 37 percent of rural children are ‘not studying at all’. In the Kumtu tribal hamlet of Jharkhand, eight-year-old Suman, who would now be in Class 3, has not gone to school in nearly two years, owing to the coronavirus-induced lockdown in the country, imposed in March last year. Before the lockdown, when the local government school in her village would open sporadically, Suman was doing well in her class, managing to learn some English. But in the two years that she was almost entirely cut off from education, she can barely even read a few words in Hindi. Suman is one of many children in Kumtu who have lost the progress they had made in school, according to data from a Road Scholarz, a volunteer research group that surveyed villages in Jharkhand. But this isn’t an isolated case. The closure of primary and upper-primary schools during the pandemic and the shift to virtual education has had a devastating impact on children in India’s underprivileged households, a report titled Locked Out: Emergency Report on School Education has found.
