Abstract

Today, there is a lot of voices raised about girl child education all over India, but a lot still needs to be done at the ground level. It is true that today's girls are the future builders of tomorrow's country, so development of the country is not possible without their development. In modern times, for the first time, a pen has come in the hands of girls, now the grip of this pen is getting stronger. This is the pen from which by taking education, I am succeeding in writing myself in my own language. The number of female teachers in the country has become 45 percent of the total number of teachers. But the graph of girl child education is very low in rural areas. The government has also opened Kasturba Gandhi residential schools, it is not enough. The way the society treats girls as goddesses, in the same way they do not love and caress them, if this was the case, then when would the problem of education have ended. Just to understand that their body structure is different as compared to boys, it is just a matter of depriving them of rights. Recently, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given a slogan promoting girl child education-When the daughter will progress, the house will be progress, So he started the "Beti Padhao-Beti Badhao" movement. This campaign is proving to be helpful in empowering girl child education. But there is a need for timely review and implementation.
