Positive consumption externality; The right to education for girls in India

This essay addresses one of the most pressing issues in Indian society: the gender-based restriction on girls' education. Using a range of secondary research, including articles and newspaper findings, the study examines the extent of this problem and its societal implications. Despite India's efforts to implement various strategies aimed at increasing access to education for girls, the research concludes that these measures remain insufficient. The study emphasizes the need for more comprehensive reforms and stronger enforcement to bridge the gap and ensure equal educational opportunities for all, regardless of gender.
