Nagaland Achieves 95.7% Literacy Rate, Ranks Third in India
Nagaland has achieved a literacy rate of 95.7%, ranking third in India after Kerala and Mizoram, according to state Advisor for School Education Dr. Kekhrielhoulie Yhome. This marks a significant rise from 21.95% at statehood in 1963, credited largely to the efforts of over 32,700 teachers working under challenging conditions. The government plans to improve school infrastructure, human resources, and curriculum, addressing issues like inadequate facilities, especially toilets, to further enhance education quality.
