DUTA says policy brought in without deliberation with stakeholders; association will meet to discuss norms next week
The Delhi University Teachers’ Association said it was extremely unfortunate that the National Education Policy- 2020 was being implemented by the Delhi University without proper consultation. DUTA president Rajib Ray on Thursday said that the association would be meeting next week to discuss the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP).
“Teachers and students across the country have opposed NEP as the thrust remains on commercialisation of the education sector. It is extremely unfortunate that instead of focusing on how best to reach out to students during pandemic, policies like the NEP are being bulldozed,” the DUTA said. It added that rushed, mindless restructuring has compromised the quality and harmed students’ time, with students being used as lab rats.
