The Program of Action agreed at International Conference on Population and Development, Cairo in 1933 gave considerable attention to the need to raise education enrolment ratios for females. National Education Policy 1998-2010 expressed the feature of making arrangement for reducing gender disparities at all levels. The thrust of Social Action Programs (Phase I and II) was to reduce the gender disparity emphasizing on girls education specifically in rural areas (GOP, 1998:126,123). In the last decade the government has made efforts to decrease the disparity in education. What remained the extent and trend of disparity in the decade is the focus of the study.
