As more as girls remain in school it is envisaged that they will use the opportunity to gain skill and knowledge that will help them become independent. Many impoverished parents find no economic rationale in investing to girl’s education and marry them off to enhance the family security. Now it is clear that low socio-economic background leads to the situation for the girls. It is expected that enhanced social and emotional development will attain their right to health, education and socio-economic equality. The expectations are to incentivize girls to continue in education for a longer period of time, disincentive marriage till at least 18 years, to confer financial inclusion and a tool of empowerment for adolescent girls. Adolescent boys (6.3%) at the upper primary level is more than that of the girls (4.2%), at the secondary and higher secondary levels more adolescent girls drop out of school. Secondary education is not free, and many impoverished parents, failing to see the economic rationale for investing in their daughters education, marry them off at this age in the belief that this will enhance the girl’s and the family’s security. This step however, condemns the girls to a life of financial and social insecurity. Field studies show that most women have to take up some economic activity in later years, and that their lack of qualifications and work experience makes them ill-equipped for the labour market, and therefore susceptible to poverty and exploitation throughout life. As a result, poverty, one of the factors that fuels child marriage, in turn perpetuates the feminization of poverty. However, at the secondary level this trend is reversed, with nearly of 15% of adolescent boys and 19.4 % of adolescent girls in West Bengal dropping out of school. Hence a study is proposed to find out the effect of Kanyashree Prakalpa in the rural areas schools of Deganga Block in North 24 Pgs in West Bengal.
