| Abstract: | The main cause of poverty and backwardness in any society is lack of education. Education is key to the progress of nation. It brings enlightment and awareness which helps in advancement of the country. The country's literacy rate in 1947 was 15% and female literacy was an all time low i.e. 8%. According to 1991 census country's literacy rote is 52.21%. Article 45 of our constitution stipulated the universalization of Primary Education by 1960 and total eradication of illiteracy. However, these objectives could not be fully achieved. The Kothari Commission, therefore, gave special emphasis on adult education. |
