Is the Right to Education (India) an Inclusive Act?
In this presentation, Akanksha will discuss the apparent disconnect through a study of the social and financial implications of the Act’s norms and standards using a small sample study conducted in Delhi, and simultaneously examine the opportunities and pitfalls of this reservation policy. Finally, through the lens of a study on primary school vouchers given to 400 randomly selected students in Delhi, Akanksha proposes a mechanism to reconcile the two contradictory aspects of the Act.
