Dharmendra Pradhan criticizes Karnataka's political move to scrap NEP, calls for student-centric approach

Union Education Minister Pradhan criticized Karnataka's decision to discard the National Education Policy (NEP) as politically motivated, emphasizing education's role in progress rather than politics. Siddaramaiah, Karnataka's Chief Minister, defended the move, stating NEP would be replaced with a Constitution-aligned education policy. NEP had faced opposition from students, parents, and educators. The Education Minister urged prioritizing students and eliminating petty politics for effective educational reform. The controversy underscores the ongoing debates surrounding NEP's implementation and impact on the education landscape.
