In this respect, the NEP 2020 has aligned with Gandhi’s vision in that development is Gandhian when it is full bod DEVELOPMENT. It stresses on:
-Early Childhood Care & Education (ECCE): From 3-6 years of age, the early years, NEP also put superordinate on learning foundation to build up the body, mind and spirit.
-Multilingualism: While Gandhi insisted that mother tongue instruction preserves and strengthens cultural frameworks, it improves self-esteem.
-Experiential Learning: The focus of NEP on activity based learning, freedom exploration inquiry, creativity and critical thinking shows us that Gandhian also favoured pragmatic education.
-Vocational Training: If the vocational training could be put side-by-side with the academics then the student himself would be ready to face the world as the Gandhiji wanted the people of India to be self-employed and skilled.
Focus on Values: NEP has focused on ethical standards, social purposes and environmental concern another principal of Gandhi’s vision.
