HIGHER EDUCATION CONCLAVE- 2022

National Education Policy 2020 – Impacts and Prospects

The National Education Policy (NEP-2020) aims to start fundamental reforms in schools and higher education. The Policy is based on the belief that education is essential for realising one's full potential, creating a more just and equitable society, and advancing national development. The National Education Policy's principal goal is to make India a more egalitarian and knowledge thriving society. It envisions an education system centered on India that directly contributes to the country's transformation into a knowledge superpower.
The comprehensive transformation aimed at bringing about a paradigm shift in the country's education system through effective implementation of NEP. This is expected to create a reinforced educational ecosystem. The sole aim is realising the Honourable Prime Minister of India—Shri. Narendra Modi ji's vision of 'Atmanirbhar Bharat.'
By equipping and disseminating critical skills and information, this policy emphasises on knowledge superpower. It will concentrate on addressing the skilled manpower shortages in technology, research, industry, and academia. Access, Quality, Equity, Accountability, and Affordability are the five pillars that the draft of the policy is constructed on.
