Abstract

From Preface: The agenda for education incorporated in Vision 2020 document clearly states that the primary goal of the state will be to increase the overall literacy levels from 44% (now 61%) to 95%. The proposed 93rd Constitutional Amendment, to make education a FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT has brought the focus on to Tree and Compulsory Elementary Education". Several programmes are being implemented to convert this vision into a reality. Micro level plans are being prepared with district, as unit of planning. The need for efficient flow of information right from school/habitation level is vital in micro level planning. The effort for Universalization of Elementary Education will require not only district/mandal level data but also habitation level data. It is necessary to prepare habitation level plans and registers on all the key indicators, some of which are incorporated in this publication.
