India is the largest democratic country having almost 17% of total population of the world, is still entangled in its education system.Comparing Indian adult literacy rate with other countries, India stands at 185th position with mere 60% of poor literacy rate according to literacy and census Bureau percentage. Today the major population of India lives in Villages who remain isolated from the basic right of education.Even if they are provided, teaching level is not adequate. A 5th std student is unable to read, write and perform simple mathematics question. So the situation is more pathetic in villages than cities or it should be stated as more for poor.

Education in India is delivered through Government, Government aided and Private Institute. Among them, 40% are Government which is not maintained properly, always face a problem of lack of teachers, books, and no adequate teaching system.
With the population growth rate of 1.5%, there is tremendous pressure on the education system to deliver quality education at an affordable price to improve literacy rate which will directly impact on the economy rate. For better future of the country, we need to prepare from today by providing a new generation with better education.

It is stated

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
