Right to Education
RTE as known is Right to Education Act 2009 is an actĀ enacted by theĀ Parliament of IndiaĀ on 26th August 2009 and commenced on 1st April 2010Ā which describes the modalities of the importance of free and compulsory education for children between 6 and 14 inĀ IndiaĀ under Article 21a of theĀ Indian Constitution.
This Act serves as a building block to make sure that every child has his or her right (as an entitlement) to get a quality elementary education until the age of 14 free of charge, and that the State, with the help of families and communities,Ā fulfillsĀ this obligation.
If we want to see India in the path of development,we all must comeĀ togetherĀ hand in hand and make this act a huge success,why I am saying this is because even after likeĀ 3 yearsĀ of its commencement there has not been muchĀ improvementĀ educationalĀ front.The Government and even the Parents and not much interested in the act,whereas the urban population is aware of it,the rural population does not find it as a profitable scheme to send off their ward toĀ school. GandhijiĀ once said “The real India lies in the villages. Development is possible when the villages prosper!”, so I think I made my point.The Rural India can be developed only and only by Imparting Education to the Rural Mass and in turn it will develop India.
Here is theĀ Main features of Right to Education 2009 actĀ for reference.
