Education in India compared to other nations?

In India education is provided both through public and private means. While the standard of education in private schools is pretty high, the public sector schools are lacking in both quality of education and facilities provided. Indicating the true purpose of education is not drilling, or teaching a lot of useless facts (which one can find on the Internet anyway), nor submission to established societal values, but leading out that which already is within. An educator, then, is a person who helps one achieve the fullness of one's potential without trying to impose his own viewpoints. India has a relatively advanced education system in the region. India has a literacy rate of 74 percent which is better than Pakistan's 57 percent but significantly less thanSri Lanka's literacy rate of 92 percent.<img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ytVneQUA5-c/hq720.jpg"; style="max-width:440px;float:left;padding:10px 10px 10px 0px;border:0px;" alt="Five Principles of Extraordinary Math Teaching | Dan Finkel | TEDxRainier" />
