Abstract :
Achieving a high standard of education is
essential for every nation's development, and education
policy is one strategy for doing so. A major overhaul of
India's educational system is being sought after by the
National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 programme.
Everyone should have access to high-quality education,
which will position India as a global leader in terms of
economic development, social fairness and equality,
scientific advancement, national fusion, and cultural
preservation (NEP 2020).
NEP 2020 has introduced on 29 July 2020 it
replaced the NEP 1986. The Mahamana’s vision and
vision of NEP is in line with the fourth goal of the United
Nation Sustainable Development goals which ensures
equitable and quality education and promote lifelong
opportunity for all. Though NEP 2020 has impacted both
school education and higher education equally, this
paper focuses on the fourth sustainable development
goal.
This paper's major emphasis is on the present
tactics used in India's education system for
contextualising SDG 4 and including NEP 2020. The
fourth SDG's performance in India is also examined, as
is the trend of higher education in India.
