Abstract

Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao (save the girl child, educate the girl child)one of the first scheme introduced by the government India in 2015 aimed at generating awareness about gender empowerment and the importance of education for the girl child. This paper evaluates whether the policy has been successful in impacting girl education in India by considering factors such as change in enrollment ratio of girls in secondary education, change in child sex ratio, effectiveness of awareness drives and the allocation of funds. Ourresults indicate that this policy alone cannot be successful in changing the attitudes of people. To makeawareness drives more effective, my research sheds light on how the funds need to be diverted towards district level engagement rather than at the national level.
