| Energy use patterns for domestic purposes vary considerably across households in India. While modern domestic fuels are becoming popular, the majority still relies on traditional sources of energy. This is especially true for households in rural areas for whom the affordability and accessibility to modern fuels is still a major problem. Inaccessibility to modern sources of fuel by a household has a direct bearing on the time spent on learning by children in these households. The reason for this being the fact that energy constraints leads to individuals budgeting their time collecting fuel which leaves them with lesser time for learning and related activities. The paper examines the impact on time spent in learning with specific reference to energy constraint and non-constraint of a household. |
