Thrust on rollout of New Education Policy, higher education and R&D
With India expected to be home to the largest population of young people, the focus on ensuring qualitative education opportunities becomes critical. In line with the aims of the new National Education Policy, the Central government on Monday said it will focus sharply on qualitatively strengthening over 15,000 schools to make them “exemplar” schools, which will in turn mentor other schools in their region.
One hundred new Sainik Schools will also be set up in partnership with NGOs, private schools or states. In a bid to strengthen educational infrastructure in tribal areas, the government plans to set up 750 Eklavya model residential schools with increased allocation of ₹38 crore per unit (from ₹20 crore) and ₹48 crore per unit in hilly and difficult terrains. A plan to set up a Central University in Leh was also announced.
