Abstract:
The role of education is important in the development of individual, society and nation. Education creates sensitivity and real human behavior in a person. Getting education is not only a man's right but also a woman's right. If we look at the trend of education in the Indian society since ancient times, education has been based on a specific person, a specific caste, a specific gender. Whose impact is still visible on our social system. Which presents differences regarding gender based education.
In the Indian social system, the right to education is not of any person, gender or caste, it is the right of all human beings and every person of the society should get education, for this Mahatma Jyotirao Phule, Savitribai Phule, Rajarshi Shahu Maharaj, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, Mahatma Gandhi The contribution of social reformers like Maharshi Dhondo Keshav Karve etc. has been important and education has been encouraged even in adverse social systems. In the Vedic period, women had the right to get education, but in the Middle Ages, women's education was denied. Buddhist, Jain etc. Women's education has been supported in religion. During the British rule, Indian education started getting attention through the Chartered Act of 1813, but there is no mention of women's education in it. Women's education has been given attention in the 1954 Wood's Dispatch.
