The government of India has brought the National Education Policy (NEP-2020) into being, realising a long-cherished desire and the most eagerly anticipated vision for the process' next phase. This moves the procedure one step closer to being finished. It has come to our attention since the publication of the policy document that the policy-makers and other stakeholders have held a significant number of national webinars, seminars, and academic discussions on the subject of the policy's implementation and the practical understanding of it over the past two years. The government has also made a significant advancement in education to improve quality, equity, access, and excellence in a way that is inclusive, in addition to the major social programmes for social transformation and economic development of the country on par with the pace of development at the international level. This is in addition to the main social programmes for transforming society and advancing the country's economy at a rate that is consistent with global development. This will be carried out along with the main social goals. This research aims to assess how faculty members at higher education institutions perceive the NEP 2020's success. The research is based on a sample of 165 professors who work in colleges in Mumbai City that offer higher education. The findings indicate that most of the time, faculty members' expectations for the upcoming adjustments to the educational system are average or slightly below average.
