Hi Nadum,
To jump start this duscussion by sharing on why it would be important to have the VICs. Village Information Centres (VICs) can help provide villagers with educational classes as well as employment opportunities. It can guide the students in choosing their careers and show them ways of achieving them. With the coming of ICT in villages through VIC and the opening of new employment opportunities, lessen migration to urban areas thus retaining intelligent minds in villages who can plan the further development.
