Abstract

From Introduction: Education is the only factor that develops a scientific vision of the society, which is necessary for the overall development of a country. The realization of the significance of socio-economic implications of education prompted government to take action in the form of specific programme. After independence top priority has been given for achieving the goal of universal elementary education through different education policies and programmes. The National Education Policy of 1986 and Programmes of action 1992 were the steps towards the universalization of elementary education. As a result of these policies and programmes, India has made long strides in the last 56 years in the field of education especially in the field of Primary Education in terms of progress in providing access, improving retention and the quality improvement in primary education sector. Quality improvement still remains a major concern, especially for primary sector hence, Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan came into existence to fill this vacuum and cover all the Districts in the country unlike the previous programmes.
