The best way to celebrate International Literacy Day
Since 1967, September 8 has been celebrated as International
Literacy Day (ILD) every year. Started by United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO), the day marks the importance of
literacy as a matter of human rights and dignity. It is a day to celebrate
literacy achievements and raise awareness about education and its benefits amongst
societies, communities, and individuals.
Let’s take a quick look at literacy facts of
India:
- The
literacy rate of India in 2022 is 77.7%.
- Kerala
tops the chart as the most literate state with a 96.2% as literacy rate.
How to Celebrate International
Literacy Day?
As
responsible and educated citizens, it is our moral responsibility to take
concrete steps to promote literacy in the nation. Please remember that higher
education is essential to achieve overall success in life. You should not
undermine the importance of quality education at any stage of learning and,
thus, continue the academic journey and build a successful career by taking a student
loan to fund your education independently.

Celebrate World Literacy
Day by taking an education loan
Rising
education costs and limited finance are the two biggest challenges students
face while pursuing their academic endeavours. So, if you truly value the
spirit of the ILD, then take a resolution never to give up on your academic and
career dreams due to financial constraints; opt for a student loan to fulfil
your dreams.
So
far, your family has supported your education financially in every possible
manner. Now is the time to finance your education independently by taking an education loan
for studying abroad or for studying in your home country.
Pros of education loan
- Preserve family
savings: Taking an education loan provides
mental peace to families. The reason is the loan eliminates the need to
liquidate their savings like fixed deposits and mutual funds, to name a
few, to support their children’s education. Moreover, when students repay
the education loan themselves, families get a chance to utilise the
savings in case of emergencies.
- Access to
quality education: With the easy
availability of a study loan, you can plan to study abroad and pursue the
chosen study program in a well-ranked university. Even if you are planning
to pursue higher studies in India at a premier institute, taking a student
loan is the best way to deal with financial worries.
- Building
financial prudence: Taking an
education loan is a wonderful opportunity for students to finance their
education independently and earn a self-made badge. Moreover, timely
repayment of the education
loan instils money management skills in students and even improves
their creditworthiness for availing car or home loan in the future.
