The Right to Education Act ensures that every child in India aged 6 to 14 years has the right to free and compulsory education. Enacted in 2009, it emphasizes the importance of quality education and mandates the government to provide necessary infrastructure, trained teachers, and a conducive learning environment. It aims to eliminate disparities in education access, ensuring that marginalized and underprivileged children receive equal opportunities to learn and grow. This act is a substantial step towards achieving universal education in the country.
