The NEP should have offered more tangible&realisable targets for research. Total investment on research& innovation in India declined from 0.84% of GDP in 2008 to 0.6% in 2018. There are currently only 15 researchers in India per 100,000 of population,compared with 111 in China. — PolitiTweet.org

The goals of 50% Gross Enrolment Ratio in higher education and 100% in secondary school are laudable, but when you realise it's currently 25.8% in Higher Edn & 68% in Class 9, you wonder if such targets are any more realistic than the Govt's solar-energy commitments at Paris. — PolitiTweet.org

Some proposals need detailed explanation. eg Instead of strengthening woeful school infrastructure, NEP suggests school complexes as a solution to this problem, sharing resources spread over a large geographical area. How wld this work in practice? Kids can't go miles for basics! — PolitiTweet.org
