Good morning everyone.

I am Vijay Pandian of class XII, Narayana E-

techno School, Sector – 87, Faridabad, Haryana. First of all I like to
thank Principal Ma’am, External examiner, internal examiner and our
subject teacher for giving me an opportunity to deliver a talk about:
“Importance of Right to Education”
The constitution of India incorporated the Right to Education Act
(RTE) on August 4, 2009, which explains the significance of the free
and compulsory education of children aged between 6 and 14 under
the Article 21A of the constitution of India, and became effective on
April 1, 2010, after which India was among 135 countries that made
the right to education as the fundamental right of every citizen of
India.
Education bridges the gap between poverty and prosperity. Education
gives you wings to fly high.

“Education is the movement from darkness to light”. Quality

education is delivered to the people because educated individuals and
their decisions are instrumental in the economic growth and
prosperity of a country.
 The right to education (RTE) act was launched in the year 2009
to provide free and compulsory elementary education to children
between 6 and 14 years of age. According to RTI, the state must
cover up for the obstacles faced by children attending schools.
 Be responsible for enrolling the child and ensuring completion
of the required eight years of education.
 Education helps to surpass irrational restrictions, promoting
equality, systematic functioning of a diverse country like India.
 Education reduces unemployment and improves the standard of
living of people.
 Education increases people’s productivity and creativity.
  It encourages entrepreneurship and technological advancement.
 It plays a crucial role in ensuring economic, social progress and
improving income distribution. 

Importance of Right to Education

 Firstly, it has brought many changes in society in terms of ease of
education ensures a consistent fee structure for all.
 Education also ensures that everybody gets an education easily
by making it available to everyone.
 A lot of underprivileged students cannot find ample resources
despite having talent. Consequently, it increases the literacy rate of
a nation.
 This removes any kind of discrimination especially for people
belonging to different economic backgrounds. Similarly, it applies
to disabled people as well.
 Education is the fundamental right of all capable of bringing any
desired change and upliftment in the human mind and society.
 One can open his/her lock to success through the key of
education.
 Most importantly, it ensures that schools offer seats to those who
cannot afford to pay their fees. Thus, it helps the underprivileged
people thereby making education reach all sectors of society.

Hence, it is the complete liability of the government to sustain all the

expenditure incurred in the process of providing education to the
children. It is not only the government schools but private schools are
also supposed to reserve 25% of the seats for unprivileged children of
the society.
The government needs to launch a massive awareness  campaign so
that parents become aware of the act and can take advantage of it.
Implementation obviously holds the key to its success.
