Maharashtra govt sets up panel to implement NEP 2020

The committee will coordinate between different panels that work on recommendations given by the Dr R A Mashelkar committee to implement the NEP 2020 in different sectors of education. While it will oversee the work by different brainstorming committees consisting of experts from respective fields of education, the plan is to decide on a roadmap for a smooth transition, especially at junctures where different departments are interconnected.

“In order to bring about any change, all these departments will have to be involved as those are interconnected. An effective coordination will also support the building of mechanisms to implement new systems recommended in the NEP 2020 effectively. For example, any change in school education will impact the higher education sector requiring complementary changes,” said an official from the ministry of higher and technical education department. The committee will meet once every three months.
