Aakash tablets online buying and pre-booking delay

It is datawind official website which is providing 10, 000 Aakash tablets to government institutions for distribution. They had produced around 1 lakh tablets but distributed only 10 percent of them to Indian government. It is due to this reason that booking delivery of tablets to students is delayed. Indian schools and colleges are not getting bulk of tablets to distribute. So, most of the needy students are still tablet-less.
