About this ebook
This research paper examines the constitutional underpinnings and implementation challenges of the right to education in India, focusing on the implications of the 86th Constitutional Amendment Act of 2002, which introduced Article 21A to the Indian Constitution. The study analyzes the historical context, legislative developments, and systemic issues that have shaped educational rights in India. Despite significant progress in expanding access to education, the paper identifies persistent challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, insufficient teacher training, and regional disparities in educational quality. The research highlights the need for comprehensive policy reforms to address both access and quality aspects of education. Key recommendations include strengthening teacher training programs, enhancing accountability mechanisms, improving inclusive education practices, and addressing socioeconomic barriers to education. The paper concludes that realizing the constitutional promise of the right to education requires sustained efforts from all stakeholders and a holistic approach to educational reform. This study contributes to the ongoing discourse on educational rights and policy in India, offering insights for policymakers, educators, and researchers in the field of education.
