Face to face contact and human interactions which were considered so essential for emotional well-being has taken a backseat.

Children have been deprived of co-curricular activities, participation in group events and sports which is essential for their holistic development. Mental stress and fatigue have increased manyfold due to the rigours imposed by virtual learning.
