ABSTRACT
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 aims to transform the education system in India, with a focus on universalization, quality education, multilingualism, teacher training, integration of technology, and research and innovation. However, the implementation of this policy faces several challenges, including lack of awareness, resource constraints, traditional mindsets, limited collaboration, and regulatory gaps. This article examines the effects of NEP 2020 and the potential benefits and challenges it presents. It also analyzes the implementation challenges in detail and suggests effective strategies to overcome them. The strategies include raising awareness and building capacity of stakeholders, strengthening infrastructural and resource capabilities, engaging with local communities and cultural influencers, facilitating cross-sectoral collaboration and coordination, and addressing regulatory and policy gaps. The article also presents case studies and best practices from different contexts that demonstrate successful implementation of NEP 2020. The lessons learned and best practices for effective implementation include developing a clear implementation plan, engaging with stakeholders, building capacity, promoting innovation, ensuring adequate resources, and monitoring and evaluation. The author aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of NEP 2020, its implementation challenges, and effective strategies for successful implementation, with the ultimate goal of transforming the education system in India.
