520 _a"This book is a compilation of the analysis of the Assam child budget between 2020-23. Child budget analysis is important to determine how significant child rights are for the policymakers. it demands accountability from the state regarding its approach and planning for children's overall development. The book also discusses the current state of various schemes, scholarships and health-related projects meant to benefit children. It analyses the Assam child budget with focus on the state government's approach to improving girls' education. The author looks at how these budgets address the issue of gender prejudices and work towards promoting equitable opportunities for girls, especially with regard to education. It is important to do so especially in a country like India, where gender-based social inequality is high. This is an urgent issue to look at considering that education among women and girls is crucial to address other forms of economic inequality and social prejudices"--
