Rural Rducation Editorial Image

In India, rural education is not in a very good condition. There are very few schools in the rural areas. Children have to walk miles to reach their schools and to write their exams. A study of 188 government-run primary schools found that 59% of the schools had no drinking water and 89% had no toilets. If this is the condition, how it’s improving the quality of education? Most of the time the teachers are either absent or they are not teaching. They take private tuitions and earn money. The child that fails to take tuition fails in the exams as well. So this is the present scenario of rural education in India.
