Since last year, search queries about mobile development courses have surged by 70 percent in the country’s most populated state. Search queries about the aforementioned subject also increased in Bihar, moving up 158 percent year-on-year.
India’s peaking interest in coding aligns with other educational searches people have made since last year. Demand for vocational training courses, for instance, account for 40 percent of the total educational search volume.
