MORE THAN HALF of 14-to 18 year-old youths in rural India cannot solve a simple three digit division problem that's usually taught in Class 3-4 and struggle with everyday skills, including determining time and doing basic calculations.

Let's look at the reasons:

Inadequate Educational Resources: Rural schools often lack textbooks, teaching aids, and qualified teachers.

Low School Attendance: Many students drop out early due to economic pressures or lack of interest.

Lack of Parental Support: Parents with limited education may be unable to assist with academic challenges.

Possible Solutions-

✓ Improve Educational Resources: Provide adequate textbooks, teaching aids, and training for teachers.

✔ Enhance School Attendance: Implement incentives and support programs to keep students in school.

✓ Engage Parents: Provide training and resources for parents to support their children's education.

✓ Promote Education Value: Run community awareness campaigns to highlight the importance of education for all children.

Every child deserves a childhood, not a life of labour. In India, over 4.5 million children are engaged in child labour, missing out on education and a carefree upbringing.

Here are the main causes-

Poverty.

Economic Pressures on Families.

Lack of Quality Education.

Lack of Child Labor Awareness.

Gender Disparities.

Demand for Cheap Labour.

Every child deserves a childhood full of dreams, education, and play-not work. Let's unite to end child labour in India and give children the future they deserve. Together, we can make a difference.

The rate of child marriages is the highest in India, as compared to the rest of the world. As per a recent report, 27% of girls in India, are married before they reach the age of 18, and 7% are married before they reach the age of 15. Here are the causes- *Tradition and Culture In rural areas, the practice is often seen as a way to preserve traditions and maintain social status. * Poverty Families living in poverty might view child marriage as a means to reduce the financial burden, as marrying off a daughter at an early age is perceived to be one less mouth to feed. *Gender Inequality In some cases, girls are seen as a burden, and marrying them off at a young age is believed to secure their future.
