Title

THE ROLE OF STATE IN EMPOWERING MUSLIM GIRLS THROUGH EDUCATION SINCE INDEPENDENCE: AN APPRAISAL

Abstract

THE ROLE OF STATE IN EMPOWERING MUSLIM GIRLS THROUGH EDUCATION SINCE INDEPENDENCE: AN APPRAISAL *Dr. Seema Agnihotri,Assistant Professor-III, AIE,AUUP Mail ID: sagnihotri@amity.edu Since Independence state has shown special concern in uplifting the status of the country through education. Creating provision of the universalization of the elementary education in the country through article 45 under the directive principle of the constitution and various committees and commissions constituted in this regard left no doubt about the intention of the state in achieving major targets of development through education. For six decades, the nation has worked and moved towards building and sustaining a secular democracy and advancing the interests of the historically disadvantaged sections to include women, the Scheduled castes (SC), the Scheduled Tribes (ST) and the minorities But all these attempts by the state about the universalization of elementary education and secondary education respectively seemed to fail their goals due to prevailing socioeconomic, political and economic factors. Due to the overshadowing impact of these factors in one way or the other, one may witness discrepancy in the enrolled status of children of the different communities. According to the 2011 Census, the literacy rate of Muslim was found to be around 52%. But when it goes to girls, then the percentage goes further down. The reasons behind the relatively poor participation of the Muslim Girls at the different levels of education was found to be related with large family size, poverty, gender-role discrimination, social stereotypes and stigma along with lack of neighborhood schools, women teachers, purdah system etc. While referring the thrust of the Right to education Act on the disadvantaged group and on inclusion, this paper aimed to study the participatory status of the Muslim girls in education followed by enlisting suggestions to enhance the participation. The methodology of the paper was descriptive and entirely based on the review and analysis of the secondary sources related with education of the Muslim girls in India.
