The puzzle of missing urgency around learning

The Hindu·3h ago·Neutral

What Happened

India faces a persistent learning crisis with poor foundational literacy and numeracy outcomes, despite policy support and increased funding. Despite ASER reports documenting marginal improvements, urgency for systemic change remains absent. Experts attribute this to lack of salience—insufficient public recognition that the problem matters, preventing immediate action despite its magnitude.
