Literacy is necessary but it should not make people shun certain professions. They should also be enlightened about the dignity of labour.
A cobbler or barber in rural India should enjoy the same dignity enjoyed by a UD clerk. What India needs is an enlightened society freed from the yoke of social taboos and caste system. When that happens literacy and education would have achieved their goals.
