Kota, August 18: Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla has announced plans to establish digital libraries in every panchayat of the Kota-Bundi region, with the aim of improving access to education, technology and knowledge in rural areas.

The proposed libraries are expected to provide access to online study materials, e-books and other digital resources, supporting students preparing for competitive examinations and pursuing higher education.
