Education is an effective means of social reconstruction. It is the most potent tool for socio-economic mobility and a key instrument for building an equitable and just society. In this context, it is felt that the education system of the country should aim at developing in the young minds the necessary skills such as critical thinking, creative thinking, logical thinking, reasoning and problem-solving. It helps to increase the productivity, achieve national and emotional integration; and accelerate the process of modernization. The National Education Policy (NEP) -2020 is the initiative of the Government of India to revamp the existing system; and to provide universal access to quality education on the foundational pillars of access, equity, quality, affordability and accountability in education across the nation.
