Hindutvaisation of education: Narendra Modi-led government's game plan under NEP

The Hindu  

Education has been on the radar of the Bharatiya Janata Party for some time. I don’t understand.” According to a Press Information Bureau release, Venkaiah Naidu “lamented that India’s famed age-old education system was severely dented by centuries of foreign rule”. He called for “restoring India’s glorious tradition in the education sector by revisiting ancient teaching-learning systems and traditional knowledge to make them relevant to the present times”. The same PIB release said that he expressed his happiness at the NEP’s attempt to “Indianise” education and “strong disapproval of the mentality that considers everything Indian as inferior”. These rich legacies to world heritage must not only be nurtured and preserved for posterity but also researched, enhanced, and put to new uses through our education system… a holistic and multidisciplinary education, as described so beautifully in India’s past, is indeed what is needed for the education of India to lead the country into the 21st century and the fourth industrial revolution.” The NEP assumes that India’s destiny is to rise to the position of a world leader, a global knowledge superpower, a Vishwa Guru as it once was.
