It has been known since times immemorial that social can be ushered in through education alone. As such, a futuristic education policy both at school and university levels is extremely essential. Nations around the world have been framing effective education policies juxtaposing traditional values and modern scientific culture and making necessary and timely adaptations to make these adaptable to the present-day needs. The Government of India had announced the new education policy based upon the recommendations of an expert committee headed by Dr. Krishnaswamy Kasturirangan, Former Chairman of ISRO. This policy tries to overrule its predecessor, which was announced nearly three decades earlier. Barring certain apprehensions, the new national education policy tries to bring in a unified system of education across the length and breadth of this vast and diverse country. In this paper, we have critically analyzed the policy and have recommended modifications to ensure a seamless continuum with its predecessor besides increasing its relevance.
