Right to Education Act (India)

The Right to Education Act (RTE) in India, implemented in 2010, mandates free and compulsory education for children aged 6 to 14. It aims to ensure that every child has access to quality basic education, promote inclusive learning, and reduce disparities. Schools must meet certain standards, maintain infrastructure and teacher qualifications, and follow a curriculum that supports holistic development. The Act also emphasizes non-discrimination and equitable treatment of children from all backgrounds, contributing to social justice and long-term national development.
