Aakash Tablet


The Aakash tablet is the world’s cheapest computing device. It is ideal for use by students at whom the machine is actually targeted. The design of the tablet has been maintained simple and basic; but is a little bulkier when compared to the other similar devices


The high point of the Aakash Tablet is its competitive price which is within means of the masses. The tablet was developed keeping in mind the general public in India, especially the student community spread out in far flung places. The tablet was developed under the aegis of Shri.Kapil Sibal

The tablet that made headlines across the world as being an innovative computing device is developed with big goals towards improving the education standard even in rural townships. The (NME-ICT) National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology has plans of linking Universities and Colleges across the country so the students can benefit from a higher standard of education. It is proposed that a total of 416 Universities and 20,000 colleges in the country will be initially linked through this system. NME-ICT proposes at least 18 separate line items for the benefit of content creation
