Redeeming a Pledge Status Report Second Ministerial Conference, Bali (September, 1995)

Abstract

From Introductory: Since the EFA-9 Summit in New Delhi, primary education has been high on India’s political agenda and is backed by a national consensus. While India’s efforts to reform the economy are well known, the simultaneous efforts to reform education are largely unknown. In 1991, the very year when the economic reforms were launched, the government decided to review and update the National Policy on Education, 1986 and to implement it with renewed vigour.
