Description

The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has resulted in considerable changes to the Indian educational system. The NEP 2020 aspires to improve Indian education system by emphasizing holistic and multidisciplinary learning, adaptable curriculum, and skill development. It proposes the incorporation of technology, the encouragement of research and innovation, and inclusive education for all children. This comprehensive policy strives to improve the quality of education in India by addressing the requirements of various learners. Minority educational institutions play an important role in ensuring that marginalized populations have access to high-quality education. These institutions not only preserve cultural, linguistic, and religious diversity, but they also foster a feeling of identity and inclusiveness. Minority institutions provide a supportive environment in which students can develop academically, emotionally, and socially.NEP 2020 emphasizes giving educational institutions more autonomy in planning and delivering curricula. This enables minority institutions to provide an extensive curriculum that incorporates the culture, history, and traditions of the local and regional communities.NEP 2020 creates opportunities for collaboration, idea exchange, and collaborations between minority educational institutions and mainstream educational institutions. But minority institutions may experience difficulties in implementing and adapting to the new curriculum, providing enough finance, and meeting infrastructure needs within their constraints. Insufficient financial support can have detrimental effects on faculty development, infrastructure, and the overall quality of education provided. This paper will examine effects of NEP 2020 on minority educational institutions, emphasizing the difficulties and opportunities they may encounter.
