In interview to ThePrint, Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal says NEP will be implemented uniformly across all schools, will ensure 6% of India's GDP is spent on education.
MPhil has been discontinued as part of the National Education Policy, which was unveiled by Modi govt last week and sets the stage for a vast array of reforms.
CM E. K. Palaniswami said the three-language formula in the NEP is 'painful and saddening' and added that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should reconsider the policy.
There are two factors why Indian universities couldn’t do what a national education policy is now trying to achieve. Before implementing NEP, let's understand those first.
Even before schools figure out a way to implement the new policy, parents have started questioning it while experts are divided on whether it is a beneficial move or not.
Like Modi govt’s NEP, Kothari Commission in 1966 had also recommended education in the mother tongue. But India is not about to turn its face away from English.
State leaders with their ear to the ground, like Nitish, Mamata and Yogi, have shown that the push for native language education is not what voters want.
Naidu attempts to shield aqua farmers after Trump’s tariff hits the shrimp farming sector in Andhra Pradesh, leading to the cancellation of 50% of the state's exports.
Company builds microsatellites that are smaller, faster, cheaper to produce. ICEYE will develop & launch micro-satellites, hand them over to India, which will have full control & sovereignty.
What Munir has achieved with Trump is a return to normal, ironing out the post-Abbottabad crease. The White House picture gives us insight into how Pakistan survives, occasionally thrives and thinks.
Why apologies from cisf? Anything wrong did the CISF staff? It’s a simple question can be put to anybody enters airport.
It’s a shame to our constitution even after 70 yrs we have VIP term used by govt. All are equal, no exceptions please from president to last man on the pyramid, all should be chked in similar fashion everywhere.
Make a simple law of one pager only.
Ms Kani could use google free translator app. Or she could have requested for help from somebody around to translate, that’s what most prudent person would do. But she was trained by India’s most cunning politician her father. She has picked up a quarrel with a CSIF staff and politicized it cleverly.
@ Kanimozhi. I would like to remind you that your father once prompted for separate Tamil nation and failed to achieve it. Hence he would have questioned your nationality? Shamelessly you support the English languages from ginder garden level to university level in Tamilnadu and stood against promoting any other Indian languages. Maybe you are promoting it for your party leaders run shools & for Christian friends schools. Your love for Tamil is a folly otherwise will you fight against english medium in goverment and private schools in Tamilnadu. Will you or won’t???
Does she look as if she has come from other planet or continent. She looks very much indian. To come to limelight this is the best issue when NEP 2020 is being discussed about. She is an MP, how could this have happened. All politics.
Ms. Kanimozhi is a multi time MP representing TN in Delhi. Astonished to learn that she doesn’t know Hindi or does not want to speak Hindi. We Tamils do not like Hindi imposition in Tamil Nadu. At the same time, I wonder how she got/gets by in Delhi without speaking Hindi.
How can she even communicate to normal people during her stay, let alone represent her constituents to the best of her efforts?
I don’t like her at all, but it’s insulting to make people feel that you are not Indian because u don’t know a particular language what next… tomorrow you will be questioned because you are not a Hindu
I don’t like her at all, but it’s insulting to make people feel that you are not Indian because u don’t know a particular language what next… tomorrow you will be questioned because you are not a Hindu ???… Jai Hind ??
It is, at best, hilarious that purportedly senior political leaders make an issue of such mundane matters. Ans the media also plays along as if it is a VERY BIG issue. Come on, The Print there are more pressing issues in the process of Nation building.
In regard to education, sooner we accept the reality and go where knowledge that feeds resides, the better.
Hindi is certainly not pre-requisite to be Indian. Will DMK/Kanimozhi in the same breadth condemn who force everyone to learn Tamil in Tamil Nadu and use knowing Tamil as barometer to be resident of Tamil Nadu. Her MLAs have even called north Indians who have settled in Tamil Nadu for generations and Can speak Tamil well as settlers in very derogatory way. Charity begins at home. DMK should shed it’s linguistic chauvinism before preaching tolerance to others

In my opinion theprint is a BIASED online news channel! But boost as if an honest news channel! For God’s sake don’t mislead the readers?
