Child Right To Education

No person shall be deprived of his life or personal liberty except according to procedure established by law. It can be said as it is a basic right for every citizen, right to education for the every child is mandatory. Many villages in today's India are still depriving thinking that they don't right to choose some other way of life as because they themselves were deprived of studies. Girl child are deprived for being female and they are married early and for the boys they are bound to choose their father's path as for farming etc.

Right to education is not only an amendment but it is a right given to every child to establish them. Education is the foundation on which the development of every citizen and the nation as a whole built on. In recent past, India has made a huge progress in terms of increasing primary education enrolment, retention, regular attendance rate and expanding literacy to approximately two thirds of the population. India's improved education system is often cited as one of the main contributors to the economic development of India.

At the same time, the quality of elementary education in India has also been a major concern. Still there are some of the thoughts to be changed. Rights mean those freedoms which are essential for personal good as well as the good of the community. If a child is not given education the child may be left with a developmental deficit that hampers his or her success in life. Children's rights are important worldwide. Children must have access to recreation and rest and be protected from abuse, harm or exploitation. Every child should have the right to voice their thoughts and opinions and children's rights acknowledge this need.

While about nineteen states and two union territories have compulsory education laws, they are not being implemented in many cases. Generally speaking these laws define compulsion in terms of placing the onus of parent/guardian to ensure that his child is in school and to that extent the responsibility of the state is not in the sprite of 86th amendment of the constitution.

In the absence of a clear legal framework defining the fundamental right to education, the Indian child continues to be cheated out of her right that should have been her grandmother's in 1960 and different levels of government are still not ‘compelled' to provide education which is defined by quantity and quality.

The tendency is to do ‘what we can' and not do 'what we must do'. Another issue that has been talked a lot is that is high value of studies, proper roads to connect the schools from the houses in the villages. As time goes by more, better and varied education grows after 55 years of our independence we talk about 8-10% growth rates and we are still struggling with provision of basic education of the minimum quality up to std VIII. Whether from a social equity and justice point of view or with a view to create trained human resource to power the economy. There is a need to revisit the National Education Policy twenty years later as a part of 11th plan exercise and address the issues in education in a new paradigm of various economic growth, greater challenges in manufacturing, agriculture, business services, health and education. A forward looking vision of education in India as it plays a major role in the global economy needed.Right now organizations like CRY, UNESCO and several private and governmental organizations are working towards the progress of the children well-being and rights but along with them we need to stand up and make things easier.
