This paper examines the disparities in school enrollment and dropout rates across various Indian states and their correlation with economic conditions. The paper uncovers states with higher government and private enrollments and dives deeper into steps taken by government and its impact. Despite government initiatives like Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, significant inequalities persist, particularly affecting marginalized communities and girls. The study utilizes secondary data from ASER and MOSPI, analyzing trends from 2009 to 2018. Findings reveal that states like Tripura and West Bengal have high government school enrollments, while Manipur leads in private school enrollments. Dropout rates are notably high in states like Uttar Pradesh, possibly due to less government initiatives, whereas Kerala and Tamil Nadu show low rates due to robust educational policies. The regression analysis indicates that higher per capita NSDP correlates with lower dropout rates and increased private school enrollments, suggesting economic factors significantly influence educational trends. Conversely, government school enrollments decrease with better economic conditions, highlighting the need for improved public education quality. The paper underscores the importance of targeted policies and social awareness in specific states to address these disparities and promote inclusive education.
