dc.descriptionAs one looks back over the last 54 years of Indian Independence, it is heartening to note that finally, after years of slow progress, the 1990s turned out to be one of the most productive decades in primary education a decade not only of churning but also one where the country made a significant leap in literacy rates. While there is still a long way to go before we are able to ensure good-quality basic education for all children up to the age of 14, there is optimism in the air and the overall environment is positive. The historic 2001 Census of India revealed that 65.4 per cent of the people (75.85 per cent among men and 54.16 per cent among women) are now literate, and that for the first time the absolute number of illiterates has actually gone down.-
