    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to second the Motion. This Motion is quite timely and I think we all need to support the sentiments expressed by it. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have noted three salient features that the Motion wishes to address, particularly, with regard to the marginalised communities and groups in this country. The first salient feature relates to access and retention of children in those marginalised groups. The Motion assumes, and rightly so, that children or students in the marginal areas have problems of access and retention in the education circle. The other issue relates to quality. This Motion asks the House to urge the Government to improve the quality of education in those marginal areas. The other feature is equatable distribution of educational resources. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to emphasize that regarding the issue of access, our children in the marginal areas experience a lot of problems. The harsh living conditions in those areas make them not to access education, perhaps, in a manner that those children who are endowed, who come from urban and rich areas do. In other words, I am saying that the children in marginal areas go through very harsh conditions, particularly, in trying to satisfy their basic needs."
