As we kick off "Pass Ya Fail", our campaign on Right to Education in India, this week we bring you compelling evidence on the lack of access to education in the country.

Community Correspondent Anil Guria reports from Jharkhand on the failure of the Right to Education Act. 

Phulo Devi's daughter should have been in school but is instead out in the fields helping her  mother with chores and playing. Phulo for her part has tried to get her daughter to school but the building has remained shut for over a year now.

While no one seems to know why the school is shut, the children of village Lathiyatola are the ones that lose out.
