| In line with the perspectives of human capital, human development
and human rights, this paper conceives education to be the basic right of children and re-christens all children who are not in school including child labourers and ‘no-where children’, as educationally deprived children. It examines the prevalence rate, trends, disparities and factors associated with the phenomenon of educational deprivation of children in Andhra Pradesh. The incidence of this deprivation is examined by using data sources available from Census and the National Sample Survey
Organisation (NSSO). [CDS Working Paper 362, august 2004] |
