Abstract

The link between education and labour market has a profound intellectual lineage, spanning across schools. An integrating view shared by these perspectives is the significance of education as a pivotal criterion for participating in the labour market. This paper, by plotting the distribution of education level for the age group of 15-34, identified five categories of districts in India ranging from those represented by asymmetric distributions which are characterised by low educational attainment to those with symmetric distributions featuring high educational attainment. The contrast in educational attainment has obvious implications for the labour market. [Discussion Paper 6]
