.shiksha is an active generic Top-Level Domain (gTLD) that was proposed in ICANN's New gTLD Program and managed by Afilias Registry. The domain name translates to "education" from Hindi, making it a fitting choice for institutions, organizations, schools, libraries, and other centers for education and learning. The TLD was delegated to the Root Zone on January 18, 2014, after passing all necessary processes and receiving a Registry Agreement from ICANN.
There were initial concerns regarding the application of .shiksha due to a GAC Early Warning issued by the government of India. The warning recommended that the application be denied as it did not meet the criteria for officially and legitimately representing educational institutions in India. However, Afilias, the registry operator, assured that the TLD would be open to any legitimate registrant, with no content or use restrictions, as long as applicable laws are respected. There are no known restrictions on owning this domain at present.
