E.g. in my country we have a province called Balochistan which is basically 10 years behind other provinces in technological advancements. Some students tried to create an uproar to get internet access but were arrested instead. The government was powerless as its not possible to install new lines just because some students required internet access.
Our government has tried to accomodate the students in one way though, in the staged rollout proposed by the goverment, first priority was given to students from such areas where internet is not easily available.
In my Country , student who live in disputed/underdeveloped/natural(village) areas is less affected by this pandemic. Before pandemic , the student don't have phone and internet access, and contact with outside area is difficult (because no road or access to this area). And After Pandemic , I believe people who live in that area have lower chance to be infected with Covid-19 because the area is isolated naturally, and what must goverment do is increase the educational facilities, so the student can study properly
