NEP 2020 : Institutional Autonomy and Academic Freedom in Higher Education in India

Abstract	The concept of autonomy in higher education evolved out of democratic movements during the European Renaissance that emphasized on the spirit of curiosity and critical inquiry. The conventional notion was that the state would provide necessary funds for smooth functioning of the universities but will not interfere in designing its curriculum, pedagogical methods, research and governance. But in the neo-liberal age, the onslaught of global capital has put this concept in jeopardy. Its repercussions are perceived in NEP 2020 where an attempt at centralization of education problematises the concept of institutional autonomy in higher education
