    (Pratibha Spandan, 2025) Shagufta Nazneen Ansari, Amita Bhati
    Education is the foundation of societal development, shaping economic progress through skill enhancement and the creation of sustainable employment opportunities. Beyond economic growth, quality education plays a pivotal role in driving sustainable development, fostering social inclusion, and empowering individuals. Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) seeks to ensure inclusive, equitable, and lifelong learning opportunities for all, making education financing a critical factor in achieving its objectives. This study examines the integration of SDG 4 in the Indian context, focusing on the effectiveness of policies and government initiatives in enhancing education financing for quality improvement. It identifies key challenges such as disparities in access to education, inadequate infrastructure, deficiencies in teaching quality, and variations in learning outcomes. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research draws on both primary and secondary data sources, including government reports, academic publications, policy documents, and educational project analyses. The findings highlight the urgent need for increased financial investment, targeted policy reforms, teacher capacity-building programs, and the integration of technology to bridge existing gaps in educational quality and accessibility. The study offers strategic recommendations to strengthen education financing mechanisms, ensuring alignment with SDG 4 goals and fostering a more inclusive and effective education system in India.

    Analysing the Trends in Public Expenditure on Education in India
    (Sandpiper Publisher, Lucknow, 2025) TAHIR HUSSAIN ANSARI , HUMA SHAHID
    This study looks at the patterns of public spending on education in India with the goal of clarifying financial priorities, distribution patterns, and the effects these have had on educational results over the last few decades. This study does a thorough examination of the variations in educational spending at the federal and state levels using extensive data from government budgets, policy papers, and statistics reports. The research highlights the differences in state-by-state spending on education and looks at how these differences affect educational fairness and quality. According to the study, increases in important educational indicators including student performance, enrolment ratios, and literacy rates are correlated with public spending. Additionally, it evaluates the results of flagship government programs and policies meant to improve educational accessibility and infrastructure. Persistent difficulties are identified by the research, such as in efficient money utilization, regional disparities, and the need for a more focused strategy to meet the particular requirements of underfunded regions. The study's policy suggestions, which highlight the significance of a planned, fair, and sustainable approach to finance, are intended to maximize investments in education.
