Improving Rural Education can be a Game Changer

By Dr. Neelam Gupta ON 25-April-2019


Education in India has improved dramatically over the last three decades. Schools have become accessible to most children; both student enrollment and attendance are at the highest level. The RTE Act guarantees a quality education to a wider range of students than ever before. However, challenges in teaching and learning outcomes across all regional, cultural and socioeconomic subsets prevent us from harnessing the true potential of vast human resource and keep the country educationally backward.

______ A message ______


"India lives in villages" were the golden words of Mahatma Gandhi many decades ago. Ironically after almost 50 years the data does not seem to disagree. Today a majority of the Indian population still live in the villages. Though there is substantial migration from rural to urban areas in India, still almost 68% of India continues to live in rural areas.

Today, after almost 7 decades of independence, the villages take a backseat in almost every aspect of socio-economic analysis. We have created an economy of rich cities and poor villages, surging urban areas and decaying rural areas.

A look at the Socio-Economic Census (2011) data regarding rural livelihood and employment is scary. Almost three fourths of the rural households live with a monthly income of less than Rs 5000. More than half the rural households do not own land and more than half of them are casual labor.

We shall continue to empower our people and strengthen our resources to create a better tomorrow for all those marginalized communities who have been left out from the sphere of development.
