Gramiksha: holistic education through youth mobilization

Abstract

India is among the ten fastest developing economies in the world yet at the same time has 33% of the world's uneducated people. With 40 percent of its populace under 18 – India is currently going up against the risks of its inability to educate its residents, a lot of whom are strikingly poor[1]. India, being a mixed and developing economy, needs government intercession in the sector of education since instruction driven by benefit rationale can't profit the majority. Yet, the state of government schools in India is very pitiful. Aside from a few states, all the Indian states have poor track records in the education space. Also, the endemic corruption and greed in the education sector have ruined the effective deployment of plans, jeopardising the future of the students as well as of the country. More kids are now enrolled in schools than at any time in recent memory, however, the condition of government schools has sunk to very low levels. The stu-dents in these schools originate from the least fortunate of families — the individuals who cannot bear to send away their young to non-public schools somewhere else[2].
