Project Report from the year 2011 in the subject South Asian Studies, South-Eastern Asian Studies, grade: For adults, , language: English, abstract: Basic education is the bedrock to do away with poverty and all other social miseries existing in the modern world. India, a multi-lingual, multi-cultural and multi-religious country, is divided into 28 states and 7 union territories with a population of 1.15 billion (according to Census Report, 2010). Though a
developing country, the country’s economic power is growing steadily providing jobs for the citizens and India claims an international acknowledgement as ‘knowledge superpower’. But poignant as it could be, India has the largest illiterate population in the world. I interviewed various school teachers and Heads of institutions to find out what is the scenario.
