NEP 2020 turns two !!
Highlights of NEP’s two years celebration was held in New Delhi on July 30, 2022 where Home Minister Amit Shah was the Chief Guest in the presence of Union Education & Skill Development Minister Dharmendra Pradhan .
The highlights of the celebration:
- Union Home & Cooperation Minister Amit Shah launched the education and skill development related initiatives to mark two years celebration of National Education Policy.
- Prime Minister Narendra Modi ‘s National Education Policy is seen by the people in different ways, but he believes that a nation is built by its citizens and this NEP 2020 has been made with the basic idea of making talented citizens.
- This new education policy of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the foundation of self-reliant, strong, prosperous and secure India and this education policy is a means of reaching every child and shaping their future.
- It has been clarified in the new education policy that the public education system is the basis of a vibrant democratic society.
- After extensive brainstorming PM Modi has incorporated all these objectives in NEP-2020 by the inspiration of scholars. Remembering the Quotation of Swami Vivekananda the education makes a person capable to face struggle, builds his character, makes him philanthropist and instill courage in him like a lion.
- NEP-2020 is connected to the cultural roots of India and this education policy has been formed respecting the suggestions of everyone.
- Among all the education policies that came after independence, NEP-2020 brought by PM Modi is the only education policy that did not face any opposition.
- National Education Policy 2020 is not just a policy document but a reflection of the aspirations of all the learners, academicians and citizens working in the education sector of India.
- Whether it is technical education, medical education or law education, when we do not teach all these in Indian languages, then we are able to use only 5% by limiting the capabilities of the country, but when we teach in these subjects in Indian languages we are able to utilize the 100% capacity of the country.
- Along with incorporating India’s culture and knowledge tradition in NEP 2020, the way has also been opened to incorporate innovations, thinking and modernity from all over the world and there is no place for narrow thinking in it.
- The main objective of this policy is to groom such students who have a sense of national pride as well as world welfare and have the potential to become a global citizen in the true sense.
- One can acquire a good position in life through rote learning, but a person cannot gain respect.
