Statistical Spotlight on Education 1976-77 (Lakshadweep)

Abstract

From Preface: It has been our unassailable ambition to bring out a publication exclusively on Education in Lakshadweep, ever since this backward area was constituted into a Union territory, in 1956. The ambition remained unful- filled for want of sufficient statistical personnels to work in the field. However, we have been able to give the educational statistics in almost all the statistical publications relating to this Administration. Realising; the inadequacy of the piecemeal data on education, scattered in many other publications of this Administration, and due to the genuine awareness that the development of education is the pre-requisite for any other development In a backward area like Lakshadweep, we have found that a statistical publication, exclusively on education will be of immense help.
