The girl child in backward states are least educated. Educate the population specially the girls to make social progress. Education is the key to better life, that is why the evil caste system denied education to the masses, to keep them weak and meek. Jyotiba Phule from Maharastra was almost murdered by the castiest elite from Maharashtra since he tried to educate the lower caste girls. Fortunately these vested intrests with hateful hearts failed and many women got education.
