Page 14: Introduction to Referencing

Women and girls on India receive far less education than men, due both to social norms and fears of violence. India has the largest population of non-school-going working girls.India's government guarantees free primary school education for both boys and girls up to age 14. This goal has been repeatedly communicated, but primary education in India is not universal. Overall, the literacy rate for women is 39 percent versus 64 percent for men. The rate for women in the four large northern states - Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh - is lower than the national average: it was 25 percent in 1991. Attendance rates from the 1981 census suggest that no more than 1/3 of all girls (and a lower proportion of rural girls) aged 5-14 are attending school.Before India became an independent country in 1947, less than 8% of females were literate. Even with the progress that has been made, there were 16 million more illiterate females in Indian in 1991 than there were in 1981.
