Problem:
When we talk about education in India, we can’t just talk about how education is in urban cities of India, without going deep into rural and tribal education that constitutes almost 90% of the schools being located in rural and tribal areas. The most common problem of rural and tribal education
Lack of proper transportation:
Lack of quality human resources
Lack of infrastructure
Children in rural and tribal areas of Odisha feel disinvested in their education and this is evident as 2.8% of children drop out of school every year and average attendance in school on any working day is 80%.
Odisha Government closed every year number of schools. In Sonpeur 2019-20 more than 150 primary schools are identified for closing.
Iswar, is a child from Salepali Community of Sonepur District. He is studying in 7th grade at Moraloye village which is the distance around 3 km from salepali. He is the first person who reaches the 7th standard. Every child should learn but they don’t have to receive an education. Every child is born with enormous potential, but around the world, a hundred million children can only dream of realizing that potential simply because of where they born and how many their families earn.
