94,000 Government Schools Closed in India Over Past Decade

Last updated Aug 4, 2026: A NITI Aayog report reveals around 94,000 government schools closed across India in the last decade, leading to a 2.26 crore drop in enrolment and slashing their share of total students from 71% in 2005 to 49.24% in 2024-25. Factors include falling birth rates, mergers to boost teacher-student ratios, and a shift toward private options preferred by families, though rural and poor communities feel the impact most. While some defend mergers as resource consolidation under the National Education Policy 2020, critics worry about access for vulnerable children, especially girls, and question if quality gains will match the changes.
