Background
Overview
The NEP 2020 is a significant policy reform, and its implementation dynamics, especially concerning federalism and state autonomy in a concurrent subject like education, are crucial for understanding Indian governance and social development.
Education falls under the Concurrent List of the Indian Constitution, allowing both the Union and State governments to legislate on it. The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 aims to bring comprehensive reforms across all levels of education, but its implementation often raises questions about the balance between national standards and state-specific needs and autonomy in curriculum development.
