Abstract

Educational needs a greater focus on accessibility, equity and quality. Over the years, remarkable progress is noticed in respect of female participation up to the secondary level and gross enrolment rate for girls has exceeded that of boys. Such progress in girls participation in elementary and secondary education is mainly attributed to government programme like setting up of residential schools where female literacy rates are low, providing physical and financial incentives to the girls. But girl’s enrolment is lower than that of boys at the higher levels of education. Girl’s enrolment rate stood only 23.5% against 25.4% for boys in higher education during the year 2015-16. At this level, the gap is visible across the social categories too. This paper emphasis on female education as compared to male education because it enables them to responds to the challenges, to confront their traditional role and change their life. So that we can’t neglect the importance of education in reference to women empowerment.
