Literacy rate is a demographic concept. it refers to what percentage of population of a country can read or write in atleast one language. Literacy rate is calculated for population above 5 years of age, because normally below 5 years children may not develop ability to read or write. For India the literacy rate, according to 2001 census was 65%

The literacy rate is a measure of how well people can read and write their own language. Stated as a percentage, the higher the better!
