Tryst with the Right to Free and Compulsory Education in India. A tale of Right to Education Act, 2009 in India and its way forward

      Аннотация: "By education, I mean an all-round drawing of the best in child and man in body, mind and spirit"- Mahatma Gandhi "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world"- Nelson Mandela "The most basic issue relates to the elementary fact that illiteracy and innumeracy are forms of insecurity in themselves. Not to be able to read or write or count or communicate is a tremendous deprivation. The extreme case of insecurity is the certainty of deprivation, and the absence of any chance of avoiding that fate. The first and most immediate contribution of successful school education is a direct reduction of this basic deprivation - this extreme insecurity - which continues to ruin the lives of a large part of the global population, not least in the Commonwealth."- Prof. Amartya Sen
