RICHA AUDICHYA, DEEPAK BHATIA
Abstract
Higher education must focus on producing decent, considerate, well-rounded, and creative people to meet 21st-century standards. Achieving personal goals and enlightenment, actively participating in society, and making a positive societal contribution are all made possible through higher education. It is the key to creating more thriving, socially active, cooperative communities and a happier, more unified, culturally advanced, creative, inventive, forward-thinking, and prosperous country. For decades, Indian higher education systems have been dealing with the following issue: several HEIs offer instruction in local languages, a lack of competitive peer-reviewed research funding across disciplines, an ineffective regulatory system, and large affiliating universities leading to low standards of undergraduate education, etc. Previous education policies had few limitations, as the new education policy has been framed to bring reforms in education. The government of India has made many recent amendments to the new education policy. It emphasizes institutional reform, comprehensive and multidisciplinary education, reimagining vocational education, and catalyzing high-caliber academic research across all fields through a new National Research Foundation. The primary goal of this study is to determine how new educational policies affect higher education and the adjustments needed following the previous educational system. This paper aims to highlight NEP 2020 and examine India 2.0's goal for a comprehensive educational system reform to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century. This study is exploratory and is based on secondary sources. Findings are based on a systematic review of existing literature.
