I was surprised when I studied illiteracy problems in America. What is illiteracy? 1) I do not have education, especially I do not know how to read and write. 2) As stated above, it indicates a lack of education. Those who do not know how to read and write - illiteracy. Some people read a little, others see the sound of words, others can not read at all.

Illiteracy is a condition for becoming a stain in the development of the country. India has the largest illiterate population. Indian illiteracy is a problem with complicated problems. Indian illiteracy is more or less related to the different forms of differences that exist in that country. There are technical barriers that affect gender imbalance, income imbalance, public imbalance, caste imbalance, and the literacy rate that exists in the country. The Indian government launched several programs to combat illiteracy threats, but illiteracy is still prevalent widely, as non-hygiene is poor, private education is expensive and the school lunch program is flawed I will. Not only the government but also all literate people need to accept illiteracy elimination as a personal goal. Every contribution of a person with literacy ability can contribute to the elimination of this threat.
