Education has played an important role in empowering rural society , but however there are both positive and negative impacts of education in rural society.
POSITIVE IMPACTS
1.INCREASED AWARNESS - Recent incidents such as girls of Haryana high school going on an indefinite fast to upgrade their school to class 12 shows what education can do to the awareness levels of rural youth.
2.REDUCING CASTE CONFLICTS - All the students of government schools irrespective of their caste sit down and take their mid day meals together . This has twin benefits ,one on their nutrition levels and secondly this reduces the caste feelings and mould them socially at an young age.
3.CHILD LABOUR & CHILD MARRIGAGE - Classmates preventing child marriages of their friends by calling government officers through child care helplines and parents sending their children to schools thus reducing child labour
4.GOVT SCHEMS - Educated youth/children force their parents into subscribing to government schemes such as Aadhar card, PMFBY, JDY etc. Increasing scope of growth for girl child through beti bachao beti padhoa etc. Hygiene levels increase where children teach their parents and also decrease the menace of superstitions .
5.SUPPLEMENT INCOME - with increasing population and land holding becoming uneconomical parents can depend on the income generated due to an educated child.
NEGATIVE IMPACTS -
1.POOR QUALITY - THE poor quality of education in government schools lead to high drop outs and the main reason of loss of interest in education among students.
2.FALLING INTO TRAP - Children with substandard education don't enjoy the advantage of competing with students trained in coaching centres that charge exorbitant fees and such children cant enter premier institutions like IITs and IIMs .They fall into trap of local colleges that don't provide good education and they finally become unemployed graduates.
3.MIGRATION - Educated youth don't return to their villages , They migrate to urban cities thus increasing the burden on the already congested urban cities and further push villages into isolation.
CONCLUSION - Government must enhance the quality of education in rural areas as private sector wont play here as it is uneconomical and the students from government schools cracking exams like IIT jee , civils services etc should not become heladlines of a paper ( these incidents should not be an "exception" they should become the "norm")
