Illiteracy is a burning question to-day in India. It should be eradicated root and branch to make our life happy and prosperous.

To eradicate this problem and to bring about her social, economical and political improvements all educated persons and students should join hands together in all possible ways.

The U.N.O. has been trying its best to remove this problem of illiteracy from the under-developed countries like India. The year 1990 has been regarded as the International Literacy year.

Postal stamps and calendars have been released for this purpose by the central government but these are not sufficient steps for promotion of literacy in a large country like India.

More schools can be set up all over the country. There should be ample provisions in the Central and State budgets to fight illiteracy.

Government should try to bring every child to school. Effective measures should be taken to stop child labor.

It is this illiteracy that seizes this land of our like an Octopus and throttles her to death. Philanthropic organizations and both formal and non-formal educational institutions should help these poor people to read and write. They can play a vital role to make the illiterate literate.

Answer:

The three effective measures to eradicate illiteracy in India are:

  • Universal Education The RTE Act (2009) has increased the number of students enrolled in schools, although only those aged 6 to 14 are covered by the Act. 
  • Increased financial support for public education.
  • Vocational Education

Explanation:

The Right to Education Act of 2009 outlaws all forms of corporal punishment and psychological abuse, as well as discrimination based on gender, caste, class, and religion, as well as capitation fees, private tutoring facilities, and the operation of unrecognized schools. It helps in reducing the fear of school children and creates a student-friendly environment for school.

NGOs are eager and committed to educating the public, and they have the potential to become a powerful tool for empowering the socially disadvantaged. The respondents are aware of the work that NGOs does for the general public and for children. The elementary education system is being expanded by the state governments.

A separate learning path from a college or university is vocational education. It provides a route that teaches the abilities and information required for employment in a certain field. It is a crucial component of the educational system and is connected with market demands. It ensures jobs and increases literacy among people.

These steps will help in ensuring literacy in India.
