States were provided token funds to plan and implement innovative activities to promote reading.

States  have  designed  specific  interventions  targeting  children  in  classes  1  and  2  to  improve learning  outcomes.  There  are  a  variety  of  focussed  programmes  being  currently  implemented across the country.
