alleryStart learning →NCF 2005 argues that 'free' education is best understood as which of the following?
AThe absence of any school fees alone
BThe provision of one school per kilometre
CThe removal of constraints to education
DThe handing of responsibility to families
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. The removal of constraints to education
1. NCF 2005, in the social context section, examines what 'free' education means.
2. It says if 'free' education is understood as the 'removal of constraints' to education, then other sectors of social policy matter for achieving universal elementary education.
3. The fees-only view is too narrow, and the other options describe concerns the document treats critically.
4. Hence the removal-of-constraints option is correct.
