Question- What are the reasons for the obstruction in the education of girls or women and what are its consequences?

Answer -

Education is a fundamental and transformative human right. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) declares - Everyone has the right to education. Be it a woman or a man. Despite this, even after being half the world, women are the victim of backwardness. Because education is out of their reach, or it is more correct to say that education has gone away from them. There are many reasons why women are illiterate in large numbers. The biggest reason is the lack of money. The lack of money affects all the members of the family, but it affects women and girls more. Less food, poor health and illiteracy become their fate. Due to lack of money, he has to leave his education in the middle. Apart from this, the burden of domestic work also becomes an important reason for their distance from education. Festivals and wedding rituals also make the girl child busier and cause long absences. The result of which is that she lags behind in her studies and she gets tired of studying. Many girls are deprived of education even because of getting married at an early age.
