Expressing optimism that evolving technology would benefit students from all strata of society, Bollywood actress Madhuri Dixit today showered praises on the ambitious 'virtual education system' launched by BMC for the civic-run schools.
The virtual classroom is the brainchild of Shiv Sena Executive President Uddhav Thackeray. The civic body had earlier this year introduced the technique in some of its schools.
"Technology is evolving everywhere. Even film industry has evolved in terms of technology. Though India is not lagging behind but there are a few people from some strata of society (who are) intelligent but they don't have the access and the opportunity," the actress said.
"But today with Uddhav Thackeray providing this unique technique at BMC schools lot of students will benefit from it," she added.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) today launched virtual education system in 80 of its schools. Under this, BMC schools are connected with each other through a satellite. A teacher will address students in all these schools from a studio and hold interactive sessions with them.
Talking about the education system in India and US, the Denver-based actress said, "The education system in USA is expensive. As far as public schools are concerned education is free but private schools are expensive. Even education in colleges and high schools is costlier in USA."
The dhak dhak girl whose love for dance is well known said she would like to open a dance school. "I love acting. Besides acting my interest lies in dancing. I would like to open a dance school. I feel importance must be given to art schools. There are not many in India. Art schools must be given equal footage as science ones. I would suggest Uddhav Thackeray to open art schools," Madhuri said.
