Given that India is a fast-developing country, education can play a transformative role in societal change in the country. However, disparities continue persist in access to education, provisioning of quality education. This has been reiterated and manifested even in recently declared SDGs with specific reference to SDG 4. SDG 4 recognizes the need for inclusive education to drive the change. This chapter highlights the role and importance of OERs in transforming the education and making it more inclusive. More importantly, OERs can play significant role in bridging the digital divide in the country by imparting access to education to both haves and have-nots.
