The Right to Education (RTE) Act, enacted in India in 2009, aims to provide free and compulsory education to all children aged 6 to 14. This legislation is a crucial step towards achieving universal primary education and addressing educational disparities across the country. The RTE Act mandates various provisions such as infrastructure development, teacher recruitment, and curriculum standards to ensure quality education for all children. However, challenges persist in its effective implementation, including issues related to inadequate infrastructure, teacher shortages, and socio-economic barriers. This article provides an overview of the RTE Act, its objectives, key provisions, implementation challenges, and the progress made towards achieving its goals. Additionally, it discusses potential strategies to overcome the hurdles and improve the accessibility and quality of education for every child in India.
