Introduction
Education is the key to socio-economic development of any
nation. It develops the understanding of the people to map
out their development plans to meet their contemporary
needs and challenges accordingly.

nations are still entangled with resolving their basic
problems of their people, but it is now open secret that
the most of these nations have bitterly failed in
effectively dealing with basic problems of their respective
nations, such as education, health, water, sanitation etc.
It is now universal fact that education has had decisive
role in not only for development of any society but also
plays very vital role in the sovereignty of the nation.
Therefore, if any nation has to successfully meet the
burgeoning challenges of the contemporary world, would have
to focus on the imparting of qualitative education to its
people.

not given attention because, one, the people of that area
were not so educated that they could have approached the
higher authorities and would have exerted such pressure to
get opened schools in their areas, second, the political
leadership has deliberately kept poor masses away from
education in order to hold their sway over them.
