RTERTE-- MORE THAN A NECESSITYMORE THAN A NECESSITY

Both are interconnected. The successful

implementation of RTE act will help us achieve

Inclusive growth. The inclusive growth approachtakes a longer term perspective as the focus is on

productive employment rather than on direct

income redistribution and for this RTE would play a

major role

Rapid and sustainable poverty reduction requires

inclusive growth that allows people to contribute to

and benefit from economic growth
