National Education Policy 2020 : The National Education Policy of India 2020 (NEP 2020) represents a significant overhaul aimed at revolutionizing the country's education system. Envisioned to replace the outdated National Policy on Education of 1986, NEP 2020 is designed as a holistic framework from elementary education through higher and vocational training across rural and urban India. Its ambitious goals aim to reshape education by 2030, addressing foundational literacy, curriculum flexibility, and integrating modern educational practices.
