The Act was passed on 4 August 2009 and came into force on 1 April 2010.<\/p>\n<p>The Act guarantees free and compulsory education to all children in India, irrespective of their caste, creed, religion, gender, disability, or place of residence. The Act also provides for the establishment of a National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) and State Commissions for Protection of Child Rights (SCPCRs) to oversee the implementation of the Act.<\/p>\n<p>The Act has been hailed as a landmark legislation that will go a long way in ensuring that all children in India have access to quality education. However, the Act has also been criticized for its implementation challenges.<\/p>\n<p>One of the key challenges in implementing the Act is the lack of infrastructure. There are not enough schools in India to accommodate all the children who are eligible for free and compulsory education. This has led to overcrowding in schools and a shortage of teachers.<\/p>\n<p>Another challenge is the lack of awareness about the Act. Many parents are not aware of their rights under the Act and are not able to access the benefits that are available to them.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these challenges, the RTE Act is a significant step towards ensuring that all children in India have access to quality education. The Act has the potential to transform the lives of millions of children and help them achieve their full potential.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they do not fall within the age group of 6 to 14 years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;5-10 years&#8221;
