New Delhi: The four-year undergraduate programme (FYUP) under the National Education Policy 2020 is not the same as that of 2013, claimed Amit Khare, Secretary, Union ministry of education, even as a section of Delhi University teachers opposed the approval given to the proposal by Delhi University’s Academic Council on Tuesday.
DU introduced FYUP in 2013, only to roll it back a year later amid widespread protest. The dissent note on the clearance by AC on August 24 stated, “The university must remember the experience of the erstwhile FYUP… students had rejected FYUP mainly because of the additional expenditure for the fourth year” and “…the multiple exit and entry system along with the burden of extra expenditure will encourage dropouts and will hit women students and underprivileged sections”.
Khare, however, disagreed with these concerns and said, “The FYUP policy is clear. Universities will continue with their three-year courses as well. This was not the case with the 2013 FYUP.”
