Search Schemes an initiative for better India

India is suffering from so many diseases like corruption, unemployment, pollution, population burden, poverty, crimes, gang rapes, child labour and above all illiteracy. Illiteracy is the main illness that has engulfed the nation in all the other diseases. Illiteracy is just like HIV infection that leads to all the other diseases and finally death.

India currently has the largest illiterate population of any nation on earth. Despite government programs, India's literacy rate increased very slowly and a 1990 study stated that it would take until 2060 for India to achieve universal literacy at the current rate of progress. The 2011 census, however, indicated a 2001-2011 decadal literacy growth of 9.2%, which is slower than the growth seen during the previous decade.

There is a wide gender difference in the literacy rate in India: effective literacy rates (age 7 and above) in 2011 were 82.14% for men and 65.46% for women. The low female literacy rate has had a severely negative impact on family planning and population control efforts in India. The census provided a positive indication that growth in female literacy rates (11.8%) was significantly faster than male literacy rates (6.9%) in the last decade, which means the gender gap appears to be narrowing. Literacy can solve all the problems in a row but providing education to each & every person is itself a big challenge.

Even in 65years of independence, India is unable to fulfill the basic need of education. There is something which is missing in efforts of government of India and citizens that has kept this mission still incomplete. We have always heard that government schemes are just waste because they do not reach to the needy and their availing process is so tedious and confusing that mass does not understand and get the benefit. So here, Search Schemes has taken an initiative to bridge this gap between government schemes and people. SearchSchemes.com is an eportal where 400+ state & central government schemes are explained in both Hindi and English along with the applying process for them.
