With the outburst of the Covid-19 Pandemic, the entire globe witnessed a deadly crisis, which bought an abrupt halt in every sector (especially education) of the economy with revised lockdown impositions and shut down of infrastructure resources. The pandemic vividly disturbed the primary and higher education sector and was not allowed to conduct regular classroom studies. The sustainability of the traditional classroom education/schooling model and the continuation of academic years became a challenge for colleges and universities across the globe. The advent of new media tools and technologies enabled students and universities to gradually conduct virtual classes without letting the academic years of the student suffer due to the global glitch. Rather, the new media added up to educational opportunities for the masses and not just the students in times of pandemic. The research aims to study the role and responsibility of new media in carrying out a balance between the learning and training priorities in India. It further seeks to study the drastic changes of education (e-learning) with the functioning of new media, enhancing and sustaining the education sector in the extremely challenging situation of the global pandemic, Covid-19.
