Impact of The Right of Children To Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009 : A Case Study of Rural Areas Of Ghazipur District

Authors(1) :-Chandan Singh

Ghazipur is the one of the districts in Uttar Pradesh. As par the census 2011, Ghazipur has 71.78% literacy rate. Inspite of the slow development that the district has had if we look at the census reports we see that the literacy rate of Ghazipur is fair enough. But that is about education provided by the publicand private players. How about public education? How about the education, particularly in the rural areas of the District? Has The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009 been able to achieve its goals in the district? Has it been implemented well? Has it brought about changes? These are a few questions that I have tried to answer in this paper.
