1. Introduction
India's education system is one of the largest in the world, serving over 250 million
students.
The system has faced a number of challenges in recent years, including low
enrollment rates, poor quality of teaching, and a lack of access to quality education for
disadvantaged groups.
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 is a comprehensive reform plan that aims
to address these challenges and transform India's education system into a world-class
one.
The national educational policy 2020 was approved by the union cabinet of India on
29th July 2020.
Dr. K Kasturirangan was the chairman of national education policy 2020 committee.
