## ANSWER MINISTER OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT (SHRI RAMESH POKHRIYAL 'NISHANK')

(a)  The  Centrally  Sponsored  Scheme,  'Saakshar  Bharat',  the  new  variant  of  the  National Literacy Mission, launched on 8.9.2009, aimed to promote and strengthen Adult Education, specially for women, by extending educational options to those adults who having lost the opportunity of access to formal education and crossed the standard age for receiving such education,  now  feel  a  need  for  learning  of  any  type,  including,  literacy,  basic  education, vocational  education  and  continuing  education  in  15  plus  age  group.  The  scheme  was implemented in the rural areas of 410 districts in 26 States and one UT that had adult female literacy rate of 50 per cent and below as per Census 2001, and including left wing extremism affected districts, irrespective of their literacy rates, with special focus on women and other disadvantaged  groups.  The  main  goal  of  the  scheme  was  to raise  the  literacy  rate  of  the country to 80% and reduce the gender gap to 10 percentage points by the end of XII th Five Year Plan by covering 70 million adult non-literates under basic literacy with prime focus on women, SCs, STs, Minorities & other disadvantaged groups in rural areas. The scheme was extended upto 31.03.2018.

(b) to (d) A statement indicating details of State/UT-wise funds sanctioned under the National Literacy Mission during the last three years is at Annexure-I . No funds were sanctioned in the current  year  as  the  scheme  was  upto  31.03.2018.  The  State/UT-wise  details  of  410  districts covered  under  this  mission  within  the  country  including  Tamil  Nadu  is  at Annexure-II. A statement indicating State/UT-wise target set for enrollment of learners and learners declared successful in the biannual Basic Literacy Assessment Tests conducted by National Institute of Open Schooling conducted from August 2010 to March 2018 under National Literacy Mission is at Annexure-III .

(e) A statement indicating the State/UT-wise literacy rate of SC/ST population in the country including Tamil Nadu, in the age group of 7 and above, as per Census 2011 is at AnnexureIV . Various factors viz. poverty, gender and social inequities, etc. are impeding literacy in the country.

Under the scheme of Saakshar Bharat, the principal target was to impart Functional Literacy  to  70  million  non-literates  including  14  million  SCs  and  8  Million  STs.  Around 100.8 million learners including 24.6 million SCs and 14.2 million STs have appeared in the bi-annual  (March  &  August)  assessment  tests  conducted  by  National  Institute  of  Open Schooling  (NIOS)  from  August  2010  to  March  2018,  out  of  which  76.3  million  learners including 18.8 million SCs and 10.8 million STs have successfully passed.

(f)  The  Ministry  of  Social  Justice  and  Empowerment  is  implementing  the  Centrally Sponsored Scheme  of Pradhan Mantri Adarsh Gram  Yojna (PMAGY)  for holistic development  of  Scheduled  Castes  majority  village.  As  per  the  guidelines  of  PMAGY,  a model village (Adarsh Gram) should have all such  infrastruture and basic services that are necessary  for  the  residents  to  have  a  dignified  living,  creating  thereby  an  environment  in which  everyone  is  enabled  to  utilise  her/his  potential  to  the  fullest.  The  implementation guidelines  have  been  revised  extensively  in  2018-19  and  according  to  this  the  aim  of  the scheme is to fulfill the  gap arising out of need assessment being done on 50 preset critical socio-economic  monitorable  indicators  under  the  10  domains  namely  Drinking  Water  & Sanitation,  Education,  Health  &  Nutrition,  Social  Security,  Rural  Road  and  Housing, Electricity and clean fuel, Agricultural practices, Financial inclusion, Digitization, Livelihood and Skill Development in the selected villages.

In  addition,  the  Department  of  School  Education  and  Literacy  has  launched  a  new Centrally Sponsored Scheme, Samagra Shiksha - an Integrated Scheme for School Education by subsuming the erstwhile Centrally Sponsored Schemes of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA), Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA) and Teacher Education (TE) from 2018-19. It is an overarching programme for the school education sector extending from pre-school to class XII and aims to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education at all levels of school education.  The  scheme  reaches  out  to  children  belonging  to  Scheduled  Castes  (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs), minority communities and transgender.
