30. NPEGEL (National Programme for Education of Girls at Elementary Level) is one of the
various initiatives taken by government for providing better opportunities to girls to be educated
under SSA. This programme was introduced to make education available for girls from places
which are hard to reach. Its focus was to attend girls those were not in school. This programme
was launched in 2003 as one of the significant component of SSA. Its objective was to provide
additional support for educational access to girls.
It is important to note that the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan was launched in the year 2001-2003
for universalization of elementary education in India. The effort was to provide education to
all without any discrimination. The objective was also to enhance the capability of the children
via education. There were fewer provisions for supporting girls’ education and hence NPEGEL
was introduced to provide maximum support to girls’ education.

(a) What was the main objective of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan ?
(b) When was NPEGEL lanunched as one of the important component of SSA ?
(c) Why there were fewer provisions for supporting girls education ?
