Abstract

Education is widely accepted as a method of increasing one's ability, well-being, and opportunities, especially among marginalised groups. Various government and non-government efforts in India have resulted in significant advances in tribal regions in terms of educational access and quality. There are still many millions of children who are not in school, mostly because of inadequate infrastructure, teacher absence and attitude, parental poverty, seasonal movement, a lack of parental interest and drive. The tribal education1 situation is no different from that of the rest of Jammu & Kashmir.
