Abstract:

A well-defined and progressive education policy at the elementary and secondary school levels is necessary for a country to advance economically and socially. When constructing education systems in different countries, traditional and cultural considerations are taken into account. Secondary and tertiary education are employed differently in different countries, based on their culture and customs. India's Union Cabinet approved a plan for a new educational system called as NEP 2020 on July 29, 2020. The current Education Policy succeeds the 1986 National Education Policy. The text serves as a reference for policymakers since it establishes a complete framework for K-12, postsecondary, and vocational education and training in rural and urban India. If India's educational system is to be totally transformed by 2021, the plan must be executed. A few days after the programme began, the administration maintained that no one would be forced to study a particular language and that the teaching language would remain English. Governments, educational institutions, and other organisations have complete discretion over how to execute the NEP's language policy. Education is a subject on India's Concurrent List. It is the first state to implement Himachal Pradesh's New Education Policy 2020, which was introduced in January. If the project is to be finished by 2022, the national educational policy must be implemented in all Indian schools.
