For any nation education plays an important role for the development.

Improvement in education has a very long term effects on the welfare of the nation. It should always be very important for all the policymakers that improvement in the education sector and every community of the society and each part of the region should be benefitted; no caste or no gender should be given priority. Education is the basic necessity so it should be affordable to all. Equalization at education levels removes all the barriers of regional inequalities and gender discrimination. From the last few decades, with all the efforts of government and nongovernmental organisations there is an improvements in education levels as well as literacy rates but some regions of India are still deprived. For the recognition of those particular areas, the educationally backward districts were recognised and further for the implementation of the policies in a proper manner, Educationally Backward Blocks (EBB) were recognised in 2007 on the basis of census records of 2001. The researcher is trying to find out the improvements in the EBB’S of one of the prosperous state of Punjab where 21blocks were recognised as backward in education. In these areas extra attention was paid by the government agencies to upgrade the grim situation. The researcher is trying to find out the improvements in this situation by considering the census records of census 2011.
