Ms. Madhulika Sharma

Abstract :

Despite numerous initiatives in improving the education scenario, accounts of national and international analysis suggest the dubious status education possesses in India–being the most hyped yet extremely devalued. With rapidly growing education system on one hand and largest adult illiterate population on the other, India is yet to achieve universal literacy.Rajasthan is one such state that has shown marked improvement in literacy levels but still plagues from massive inequalities. The present paper aims to examine the extent of inter–district, gender and location disparities in Rajasthan to highlight the areas that need urgent consideration through focused policy planning and robust implementation.
