Solution

Yes, the Right to education would certainly affect this statement. The Right to education means that the present generation of children will get educated. Hence, when they grow up, they would know the value and importance of education. Therefore, they will educate their own children. This will create the virtuous cycle wherein every generation of parents educate their children.
