Literacy

Literacy is a characteristic of a developed society.Though it is gradually increasing, the female literacy rate in India is less than the male literacy rate.Far fewer girls than boys are enrolled in school, and many girls drop out.In urban India, girls are nearly on a par with boys in terms of education. However, in rural India girls continue to be less well-educated than boys. According to the National Sample Survey Data of 1997, only the states of Kerala and Mizoram have approached universal female literacy.
