2024: A TRANSFORMATIVE YEAR FOR INDIAN EDUCATION
Millennium Post Delhi|December 26 2024
The year 2024 was a landmark in the evolution of India’s education system, witnessing transformative changes driven by the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, groundbreaking technological advancements and a deep commitment to inclusivity.
DR SANKU BOSE

This confluence of policy, innovation, and vision marked a decisive leap toward an education system that is truly futureready and globally competitive. Even though much more remains to be done, I strongly believe that this positive momentum will help steer our priorities in the right direction.

The NEP 2020 set the pace for comprehensive reform, reshaping education across all levels. Multidisciplinary approaches, flexible curricula, and the Academic Bank of Credits gained traction, with over 70% of universities adopting credit transfer mechanisms, as reported by the University Grants Commission (UGC). The policy’s focus on regional language instruction saw a surge, with states like Karnataka and Tamil Nadu rolling out multilingual textbooks for foundational learners, supported by AI-enabled translation tools such as Bhashini.

The NEP also emphasised vocational training, aligning it with industry standards. Initiatives like the Skill India programme reported that 1.5 million students received certifications in fields ranging from AI and renewable energy to agritech, a significant increase from the previous year. These developments underscored India’s determination to blend academic excellence with employable skills.
