Author(s) Barsha Bhattacharyya

Abstract The Government of India's National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 marks a radical change in the nation's educational system with the goal of promoting a more flexible, inclusive, and all-encompassing approach to education. NEP 2020 aims to re-imaging India's educational landscape with a focus on attaining universal access to education, enhancing the caliber of learning outcomes, and resolving historical inequities. Early childhood education, curriculum reforms, multilingualism, skill development, and technology integration are given top priority under this program. Increasing the Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER) at all educational levels, encouraging critical thinking, guaranteeing inclusivity, and putting India's educational system in line with international norms are some of its long-term objectives. The NEP seeks to give the next generation the skills they need to prosper in a society that is becoming more technologically advanced and international by emphasizing vocational skills and a student centric approach. But for it to be implemented successfully, issues like teacher preparation, digital accessibility, and infrastructure deficiencies must be resolved. This article examines the main characteristics of NEP 2020, as well as its long-term objectives, difficulties, and possible effects on Indian education going forward.
Keywords National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, Educational System, Inclusive Education, Curriculum Reforms, Skill Development, Technology Integration, Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER).
