From 1993 to 2017, the share of enrolments in rural private unaided schools increased by approximately 23 percent. By contrast, the share of rural government schools decreased by over 18 percent during the same time period.
In 1991, India opened its economic borders to other countries. Economic liberalization brought about a rise in rural incomes affording greater availability and access not just to government services but also private. This included improved infrastructure, access to electricity and better roads that facilitated growth of private schools in the rural areas along with higher quality of education for children.
