  1. The statement “Poor girls drop out of school because they are not interested in getting an education.” is not true because:
    (i) In many parts of the country, especially in rural and poor areas, there may not even be proper schools nor teachers who teach on a regular basis.
    (ii) Parents are not willing to send their girl child to distant schools due to lack of transportation.
    (iii) Unable to bear the cost of education.
    (iv) Boys get preference over girls for seeking education.
    (v) Sometimes, their teacher and classmates discriminate against them.
