Abstract	The study systematically assesses how well the National Education Policy of 2020 (NEP 2020) has been implemented using three major areas as part of Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan (VBSA) restructuring. The progress towards achieving an equitable outcome for the approximately 260 million students of India is threatened by the urban bias that remains a major component of the policy framework of the NEP 2020; the funding shortages that exist in the development of policies related to internationalisation of Indian education and federal tensions that remain unresolved. Using data from ORF Tracking Data, NITI Aayog Policy Roadmaps and Budget Analyses, this study examines the structural achievements made toward executing the NEP 2020 goals but also highlights the gaps in implementation. Recommendations are also presented with the goal of addressing the urban-centric bias of the NEP 2020 prior to India’s demographic dividend peaking in 2030, which will determine if the ambition of the NEP 2020 results in transformative education for all Indians.
