ASER Report: School Observations

Overall, it does not seem as if attendance in schools is going up...neither does it seem that more teachers are attending schools than earlier. If you look through the data below, that ASER has published, you will notice the government's apathy to building a solid future human capital base for the country. This tendency is now clearly highlighted by the union budget 2011.
