I heard some one saying "Right to Education Act is the greatest policy announcement after declaration of Indian Independence"…That’s very true.
Addressing the nation on the Right to Education Act that come into force today, Dr. Singh said: “The Government is committed to ensuring that all children irrespective of gender and social category, have access to education and, fund constraints would not be allowed to hamper implementation of the Right to Education Act.”
“To realise the Right to Education, the Government at the Centre, in the States and Union Territories, and at the district and village level, must work together as part of a common national endeavour. I call upon all the State Governments to join in this national effort with full resolve and determination,” he added. He also said Dalits, the minorities and girls would be the focus of the effort to provide education to all. Looking back at his own life, Dr. Singh said he came from a family of modest means. He had to walk a long way to school and studied under a kerosene lamp.
“Today, What I am, I am because of education. So, I want that the light of education should reach to all,” he added.Great Job Dr. Singh and Dr. Sibal. This is great act and will help us if rightly implemented by the state government.
