Abstract

Karnataka is 66 years old. Since its formation, the state’s economy has changed dramatically. The state’s GSDP and GSDP per capita have risen while the economy has grown and urbanised. The state’s economic statistics are robust. However, Karnataka’s human and social development may not be as noteworthy as its other achievements. It ranks 19th in India’s HDI. The image of literacy does not link with the picture of the state’s growth, despite the fact that the literacy rate in Karnataka is higher than the literacy rate of the country as a whole. The development narrative of Karnataka’s economy is quite lengthy, but the state of Karnatak in terms of human development and social development may not sound as good compared to its other performances. The goal of this article is to talk about the literacy rates in each district of Karnataka state, based on the results of the 2011 census. The researchers’ primary focus has been on determining the levels of literacy present in Karnataka’s urban and rural communities throughout the state’s many different districts. The report also underlines the difference between the literacy rates of men and women in the state’s urban and rural districts.
