The schools have been geo-tagged and all the data provided by them can be accessed through this portal.
"The progress of the country is dependent on education and the foundation of education needs to be solid. Shagun is an important initiative and through this portal. More than 2.3 lakh educational websites can be integrated," the minister said.
According to HRD officials, there will also be a third-party verification of the information provided by schools.
