The Ministry of Human Resource Development made the recent announcement that they will be implementing the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. (soon to be called the Ministry of Education). The goal of the policy is to modernise the educational system in India so that it can better serve the nation's requirements in the 21st century.

The new strategy is to correct the poor reading and numeracy outcomes that are associated with primary schools, reduce the numbers of dropouts that occur in middle and secondary schools, and implement a multi-disciplinary approach in the system of higher education.

In addition to this, the strategy places an emphasis on early childhood care, the restructuring of curricula and pedagogy, the reforming of assessments and tests, as well as the investment in teacher training and the broadening of the evaluation of their performance.

The National Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020) aims to bring about a comprehensive shift in the manner in which education is delivered in India; nevertheless, the program's success is contingent on both the intention behind its implementation and the strategy that will be used.

The new National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 is an excellent piece of legislation because it intends to transform the educational system into one that is comprehensive, adaptable, multidisciplinary, and in line with the requirements of the 21st century as well as the Sustainable Development Goals for 2030. The purpose of the policy appears to be ideal in many respects, but the execution of the policy is where the real challenge resides and where the real opportunities lie.
