It is the need of the hour, if women have to join the main stream and be equal partner in progress. Women in India like their counterparts in all developed countries like USA, UK and Canada have got equal rights, both personal and political. It is therefore, imperative for them, to liberate themselves from the age-old shackles of ignorance and backwardness, which is a result of their segregation. They, therefore, have to ameliorate their lot, by educating themselves, through the various educational institutions available in the country. It would not be conceivable to have separate institutions for there are not many Institutions, nor is there the financial resources required for establishing them. It is also not in the national interest to segregate the sexes, for imparting education. These children are the future of the country and it is essential that they have a normal development. Co-education in school would enable them to become responsible citizen, offering numerous advantages to the students themselves.
