prioritise girls’ education, and the practice of teenage marriage was common.
Additionally, the curriculum was not in the students’ primary language (Kannada), which
meant that many students were unable to achieve expected learning outcomes. Unlike

students, he decided to innovate the teaching methodology and paid attention towards
girls education as the share of girls education was minimal, due to unawareness, child
marriage,

all NCERT textbooks would have embedded QR Codes
