Educate 2 Empower - Anirudh Govindarajan
India, it is said has an advantage in its demographic dividend i.e. a high percentage of population is in its working age (15-59 years). However, it goes without saying that we will be able to take full advantage of this dividend only if all our human resources are literate and are able to work to their full potential in building our economy. Indeed, we can reap the rewards of our demographic dividend only by educating our citizens and tapping their un-harnessed potential. In this context, it wouldn't be an overstatement to say that education has the power to make or break a nation.

India continues to face stern challenges. Despite growing investment in education, 35% of its population is still illiterate; only 15% of Indian students reach high school, and just 7% graduate. As of 2008, India's post-secondary high schools offer only enough seats for 7% of India's college-age population, 25% of teaching positions nationwide are vacant, and 57% of college professors lack either a master's or PhD degree.
