The standard of education is decreasing in rural areas. If you look at it, you will find that most of the university students come from urban areas. Just an example: in my department I found only two out of 30 having a rural background. It was almost 10 years ago. I am sure the number has now gone down to almost zero. I have heard lots of stories about my father's school and his teachers. I can recollect their names though I never saw anyone of them. But villages have lost their past glory and are not producing many good students these days.
