Solution
As per the Census Report 2011, the female literacy rate is 65.46%.
Explanation:
The principle of gender equality is enshrined in the Indian Constitution in its Preamble, Fundamental Rights, Fundamental Duties, and Directive Principles. The Constitution not only grants equality as a fundamental right to women but also empowers the State to adopt measures of positive discrimination in favour of women. Despite this, women continue to face discrimination.
The literacy rate of women in India is low compared to men. As per the Census Report 2011, the male literacy rate is 82.14%, whereas the female literacy rate is 65.46%.
