The Indian central government has directed the state of Jharkhand to guarantee that every child eligible for schooling receives education under the Samagra Shiksha scheme.
The Ministry of Education has issued a directive to the state of Jharkhand, mandating that every child who is eligible for schooling be enrolled and receive education under the Samagra Shiksha programme.
The directive is part of the national effort to achieve universal primary education and to ensure that all children have access to quality schooling from pre‑primary to higher secondary levels.
Under Samagra Shiksha, states are responsible for providing comprehensive education services, and the central government has emphasised that Jharkhand must meet its enrollment targets and maintain high standards of instruction.
The state is expected to strengthen school infrastructure, improve teacher recruitment, and monitor attendance to comply with the directive and to reduce the number of out‑of‑school children.
