3 to 23-year-old students to benefit from NEP 2020: Pradhan

The generation that is in the age group of 3-23 today will reap the benefits of the New Education Policy (NEP) and will shape India’s destiny in the future but the challenge before us is to include India’s growing population under the ambit of NEP as early as possible, said Union Education & Skill Development and Entrepreneurship Minister Dharmendra Pradhan at the launch of NEP Karnataka. The southern state has officially become the first state in the country to implement NEP 2020. “Karnataka has set examples for the other states by becoming the first state to implement National Education Policy (NEP),” Pradhan said. The academic year for colleges in Karnataka will start from October 1 this year under NEP 2020 and admissions began on August 23.
