India has demonstrated considerable progress in the past decade on improving primary, school access, infrastructure, pupil-teacher ratios, teacher salaries, and student enrollment.

What would it take to completely overhaul the system and create equity in education and progressive policies along with a generation of enthusiastic learners and teachers? what do you think?
