INTRODUCTION
India has been experiencing.a discontinuous socio economic change ever since 1980 and more particularly after 1991. The socioeconomic dimension of the country have undergone a significant change ever since Late. Rajiv Gandhi thought of taking the country in to a 21'' century gracefully. Every country has changing scenario evolving from one context or tne other but the changes are most of the times predictable. The changes that have taken in India between 1947 - 1960 could be reasoned or predicted to some extent but the changes that have taken place after the death of Mrs. Gandhi have been unprecedented. Many ascribe the liberalization era to P. V. Narasimharao Government though it is true to sotne extent the foundation was laid by Late Rajiv Gandhi. To illustrate the biggest happening in recent times and even no·w is the communication revolution wpere we have come to a cell phone era. The foundation for this revolution was laid by Rajiv Gandhi through creation of Telecom commission. Many of the gains that have accrued to the economy are due to the liberalization process where economic controls are slowly with drawn this process started in 1980s when Rajiv Gandhi initiated broad banding oflicenses. Adaption of a new comprehensive education policy and creation of a Human Resource Development ministry are two other important steps taken by Shri. Rajiv Gandhi in setting the tone for anew era. Education is a process of continuous value addition which enables an individual to rise to greater heights as a person and serve the larger interests of society as meaningfully as possible. With this as a process we have to look in to facilitators as wet I as impediments in the context of socioeconomic changes.
