Effects Of Poverty On Education In India




Asst. Prof Virendra Singh Thakur & Verma Divya Santosh, Symbiosis Law School, Pune

ABSTRACT

Even while the right to an education exists, many youngsters in India still see it as a farfetched avenue (Where knowledge is poor). It is evident that simply passing laws is insufficient; further efforts must be made. If democracy is to flourish, everyone should have access to education. Numerous tribes and organizations, including women and members of underprivileged castes, have historically been denied access to education. It is crucial to devolve authority to give a child access to education. The piece correctly calls attention to how poverty affects children's academic performance1. As a teacher, you are constantly reminded of the interruptions and educational disadvantages that disadvantaged children experience owing to a lack of social security and economic stability. The education of working-class kids will continue to suffer until there is a robust and widely accessible state assistance system2. Cultural forces and ideals also play a significant role in this. Since the basis of the governing castes and classes' dominance is preserving the social, economic, and cultural status quo, their willful involvement is demonstrated. Therefore, this study also emphasizes the relevance of all these research for establishing efficient anti-poverty programs and a suitable educational system in India.

Keywords: Democracy, devolution, economic stability, poverty, and social security.
