Education is one of the significant sources for human development in the competitive scenario and women’s education builds the human as well as economic development of the nation. So obviously, the educational attainment of women in developing countries like India is very crucial. Education is the key to any kind of success in life either economic or social empowerment or together. The empowerment of women is based on their economic status, and it has been determined by the educational attainment of the women in the society. There are various issues confronting women education starting from the primary level to the higher educational level. In India, there are two types of education: government and private, with a ratio of 5:7. A high-quality education has not been provided by government education. The education gained in public schools is incredibly inadequate. This is also a result of the dearth of teachers and the inadequate oversight of them, especially in rural areas. As a result, the literacy rate in urban regions is substantially higher than in rural areas. Public schools offer subpar facilities and low academic support, which is particularly detrimental to a person’s overall development. The lack of better facilities and infrastructure, the educational attainment of women is not up to the expected level.
