Government Data Shows High Dropout Rates for Girls in Classes 9-10

New government data reveals that dropout rates for girls are highest in Classes 9 and 10, with household income and domestic chores cited as primary factors.

The report highlights a significant gap in educational continuity, as economic pressures force many students to leave school before completing their secondary education.

Policy experts are calling for targeted financial aid and community-based support programs to address these barriers and improve retention rates for female students.
