Abstract: This paper explores the significant role of digital platforms in education, focusing on their contribution to enhancing digital literacy. Digital literacy encompasses essential skills for effective technology use in communication, problem-solving, and information management. Platforms like DIKSHA, SWAYAM, and PM E-Vidya offer diverse resources, personalized learning, and professional development opportunities while addressing accessibility challenges. The findings highlight the benefits of these platforms in fostering inclusive learning environments and improving educational outcomes. However, issues like the digital divide and cyber security risks pose challenges that need addressing. Recommendations for policymakers and educators include investing in infrastructure, enhancing teacher training in digital pedagogy, promoting cyber security education, and fostering public-private partnerships for improved accessibility. Ultimately, collaboration among stakeholders is essential to maximize the benefits of digital platforms, ensuring equitable access to quality education for all learners.
