New Delhi, July 29: Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan today inaugurated Akhil Bharatiya Shiksha Samagam 2025 in New Delhi to commemorate 5 years of NEP 2020.
The Akhil Bharatiya Shiksha Samagam (ABSS) 2025, marking the fifth anniversary of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, served as a platform for academicians, policymakers, educators, industry leaders, and government representatives to review the remarkable progress made under NEP 2020 and chart the way forward.
Minister of State for Education & Minister of State (IC), Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship Jayant Chaudhary; Minister of State for Education & Development of North Eastern Region, Dr. Sukanta Majumdar; and Education Ministers from 13 State/ UTs also graced the occasion.
Speaking on the occasion, Dharmendra Pradhan extended his heartfelt wishes on the successful completion of five years of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
He stated that NEP 2020 reflects the transformative vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who places education at the heart of India’s growth story.
He further remarked that as the nation moves towards the vision of “Viksit Bharat 2047,” the National Education Policy serves as a national mission guiding the way forward.
He highlighted that over the past five years, the government has succeeded in taking NEP 2020 from policy to practice — bringing about a paradigm shift in the education system and reaching classrooms, campuses, and communities.
Pradhan noted that Indian ethos lies at the core of NEP 2020. With a strong focus on scientific education, innovation, research, Indian knowledge systems, and Indian languages, the policy aligns education with the broader goal of nation-building.
He emphasised that ‘Viksit Bharat’ is not merely a vision but a powerful call to action given by Prime Minister Modi.
According to him, NEP 2020 is the most impactful instrument to realise this dream.
He urged all stakeholders to take focused and proactive steps to ensure that every classroom becomes a space for meaningful learning and that every child’s potential is nurtured.
