Answers
Answer:India has a democratic form of government. The people elect their representative by votes. But the people are not very much aware of the rights to vote. It is because they are illiterate. They are easily moved by appeals made in the name of religions , caste and language. Illiteracy is a curse. Have we ever thought that 50 % of the world’s illiterates are Indians? Population – wise out of every 20 people in the world, there are three Indians. Out of these three Indians , only one is literate while two are illiterate. In India illiteracy rate is 64% in which 56% are men and 76% are women. The political power is directly related to the amount of education to change the social structure and social backward condition.

The adult education is based on the idea that no one can be completely happy unless he or she is educated. After all education opens the eye of mind. The minimum that is expected by adult education is the ability to read the daily newspaper and to follow the current events of the world.
Generally almost all the work of adults education is done free. It is done in spirit of social service. The importance of this adult education has now been fully known all over the country. Students of colleges and schools are taking keen interest in these programmes such as ‘Each one Teach one’ and ‘the National Literacy Mission’. Adult education is a noble work in which everybody can take part. It is a work of great donation- “Vidya Dan is Maha Dan.”
