Dr. Kinjal V. Ahir
Abstract :
Achieving Universal Primary Education’ was considered as one of the eight core solutions to eradicate poverty in the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). An equal emphasis had been laid on maintaining equity in access to education. Thus goal 2 and 3 of MDGs and thereby 5 indicators were related to education. While India was closer to achieving the target of universal primary education, many efforts were further required to ensure 100% completion rates at primary levels, 100% literacy rates with both males and females alike, and gender parity in enrolments at all levels of education. The efforts put to achieve the MDGs related to education increased focused policy initiatives towards the set goals. Such sustained efforts would be inevitable in the coming years to ensure the participation by the growing population in the eligible age cohort to ensure the Millennium Development in India.
