    In absence of substantial financial backing, achieving quality education appears to be distant dream “The destiny of India is now being shaped in her classrooms,” declared the Education Commission in 1964-66.

    Union budget 2015
    (CRY - Child Rights & You, 2015-06-07) Ganotra, Komal
    The most drastic cut in child budget so far has occurred in the 2015-16 budget General trends in public expenditure on children indicate the priority accorded to children in public policy. Given the significant deficits in various development indicators regarding children, it is imperative that the government allocate sufficiently for various programmes and schemes earmarked for children. However, total resources earmarked for children (child budget, henceforth) in the Union budget shows a gloomy picture.

    Children account for over 39 percent of the population of India as per the 2011 census. However, a close look at the overall trends in budget for children indicates stagnancy in overall investments allocations.
