NEP 2020 states that attaining one's full potential, creating a just and equitable society, and advancing national development all depend on education. The National Education Policy 2020 envisions a nationalized education system that, by providing high-quality teaching to all, immediately and sustainably transforms our country into a genuine, vibrant, informed, and living one.
