The new education policy was proposed by the ministry of human resource development and was released in parliament on 29th July 2020 by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This was the third major change in India’s education policy. The 1st and 2nd education policy was framed in 1968 and 1986 respectively under the rule of Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi.
This study focuses impacts of some of the features of new education policy like early childhood care and education (ECCE), three language policies, low stacks public exams, work studies for students, continuous professional course (CPC) for teachers, fees structure in private schools, impacts in unemployment, discontinuation of M. Phil. Program and the ultimate aim of this New Education Policy (NEP).
A descriptive research design was used to collect data from both Primary & Secondary sources. Questionnaire and Interview are considered as the research instrument for the study. Simple random sampling method with a sample of 127 respondents. Appropriate statistical tools are applied for testing the data.
For this study the samples were collected from the 127 volunteers through questionnaire in that 52% were male and 48% were female reported. It was found out there was a positive correlation between stresses caused for students and teachers towards NEP. The New policies framed is the dependent variable towards fees structure. Also, the result showed that the New education policy’s ultimate aim is business objective, as many responded correctly. At the same time, the implementation of new education policy contains many positive approaches that leads to a dramatic change in the upcoming student’s career in this competitive world. Some strategies are suggested to be adopted to make this New Education Policy more effective.

This paper examines the implementation and implications of India's New Education Policy (NEP) 2020, focusing on its impact on the student and teacher community, particularly regarding curriculum changes, assessment models, and institutional structures.
- Impact of NEP 2020 on early childhood care, assessments, and fee structures.
- Comparative analysis of the former 1986 education policy and the new 2020 framework.
- Analysis of institutional challenges, including language policy and teacher workload.
- Evaluation of educational outcomes such as student employment and skill development.
Excerpt from the Book
3. Problem identification
When we are discussing about the NEP 2020 there must be some demerits. So the problem identified here in the ECCE the children starts learning from the age of 0-8. But when we see the mind-set of the children in this age should be made to be more creative. The NEP 2020 suggest many ways for the creative development of the child. But if we see it deeply no teacher will going to take care of the baby of others. So they simply waste their times and get salary. So, it important to create the separate committee to make this more effective.
The problem with the NEP was multiple entry and exit. In this the institutions should give certificate if the students discontinue the course in one year and a diploma certificate in 2nd year and a degree certificate in 3rd year. This is the major disadvantage of this policy. If it will be implemented then the students focus towards the career will definitely affected. Because generally the human mind will change day to day. If the multiple entry system exist, the students will try all the departments he wanted to do and lacks the deeper knowledge in none of the departments. But it must be analysed and should upgrade to a fine system with all features that enables the students to get wider knowledge on each fields he chose.
Also the one more problem identified in the NEP 2020 was three language policy. As we see in outer it will be seen as a good policy. But when you go deeper you will identify the problem in it. The policy says the child will learn languages easily in the early stage. But it in turn change to language imposition over others. Because all cannot be proficient in all languages. So at the time most preferred third language other than English and mother tongue was Hindi. It won't cause any change in north India. But we see in south India already there will be more problems on Hindi impositions. So this may lead to bigger problem. It is the political problem but as far as students concern not all willing to take Hindi or French or Telugu many people likes to learn many language so it is very difficult to find teachers who are all proficient in all those languages where students wants to learn.

What is the primary objective of this study?
The primary objective is to determine the efficiency of the new policy's implementation and to identify the merits and demerits of its key features.
What scientific methods were employed to conduct this analysis?
The author uses a descriptive research design, gathering quantitative data through questionnaires and interpreting the results using statistical methods like ANOVA and Pearson correlation.
What topics are covered in the main section of the document?
The middle chapters cover detailed statistical analyses of survey results, comparisons to the 1986 policy, and breakdowns of structural changes in the educational lifecycle.
How would you characterize the primary subjects of this work?
The work is characterized by keywords such as educational reform, ECCE, teacher stress, institutional autonomy, and student-centric learning.
How does the paper view the three-language policy?
The author identifies potential risks, particularly the danger of unintended "language imposition," which could create political and practical difficulties in non-Hindi speaking regions of India.
What concern is raised regarding the multiple entry and exit system?
The document suggests that this system might lead to fragmented learning, where students shift focus between disciplines too rapidly, potentially undermining deep knowledge acquisition.
Why does the study analyze the fees in private institutions?
The research suggests that the current implementation of the NEP has, in practice, led to increased costs for students as institutions treat education as a profit-oriented service.
What recommendation does the author provide for future research?
The author advocates for making PhD programs compulsory for college faculty and establishing committees to monitor intellectual property records in educational institutions.
