Help ensure the right to quality education for all India's children
100 million children of poor families depend on government schools
Why do Kendra Vidyalaya schools get 3X funding of government schools serving the poor?
Why don't all government servants send their children to government schools?
We need a Quality Education system
to serve at least 80% of India's children
