An unexpected outbreak of COVID-19 made everyone perplexed and forced all the stakeholders of the education system to explore the ways to overcome the barrier to compensate for academic losses of learners. The best remedy to resolve this problem was emerged as ‘On line teaching-learning mode’. Need has arisen to study the accessibility and effectiveness of this method and also the impact on physical and psychological health of learners. The paper presents the findings of national level online survey in which 138 participants of different age groups participated. Analysis of responses revealed that learners’ concentration got distracted due to disturbances like network accessibility and surrounding noise. Long-time handling of E-gadgets, lack of personal interaction with teachers and peers caused severe physical and psychological discomfort. The survey confirmed that though online teaching-learning mode emerged as an option for traditional classroom teaching to keep educational system running during this adverse period of pandemic, it has got several limitations and adverse effects also. So this could be a temporary solution for time being to shoulder and fulfilment of academic responsibilities but would never be a permanent replacement of traditional mode of teaching -learning.
