India’s National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has gained international recognition and is undergoing domestic implementation through various institutional workshops.

At the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva, representatives advocated for the decolonization of education, citing India’s NEP 2020 as a transformative model. The policy was praised for its emphasis on mother-tongue instruction, vocational traditions, and the inclusion of indigenous culture to address systemic inequalities.

Domestically, educational institutions are conducting workshops to operationalize these reforms. In Tiruchirappalli, efforts have focused on integrating sports and physical education into higher education to promote holistic development. Meanwhile, in Umarga, discussions have centered on the Academic Bank of Credits and the multiple entry-multiple exit system, designed to provide students with greater flexibility through credit transfers, internships, and on-the-job training.
