Overall India’s literacy rate has increased 8.66 % points to 74.04% between 2001 and 2011 according to census data.
The crises in education is especially apparent in the four bimaru states of Bihar, MP, UP, Rajasthan with 445.1 million of India’s 1.2 billion population. Bihar has literacy rate of 61.8 Rajasthan 67.1, UP 67.7, MP 70.6 whereas Kerala has the literacy rate of 94% which is the highest in the country.
