Introductory Paragraph- The country's education system is currently beset by rising inequality and injustice, which the National Educational Policy (NEP), 2020 aims to remedy. The NEP 2020 acknowledges significant dropout rates among vulnerable minorities and socioeconomic strata, among other things. More crucially, obstacles like tiny school campuses and factors contributing to lower participation rates among girls in rural regions are acknowledged as contributing to wasteful resource allocation. It also acknowledges the unfulfilled educational demands of kids who reside in challenging geographic areas. The analysis article briefly reviews some of the most important suggestions for inclusive education and lists some of the major obstacles that the NEP must overcome. The NEP 2020 has done a good job of vocalizing the difficulties that children with special needs, minorities, and gendered categories confront. It has also performed admirably in putting out a number of commendable measures, such as education SEZs, to solve the systemic problems with education in remote areas. However, there are some errors in the new policy. It may have created a new category by combining a number of socioeconomic groups in order to improve resource allocation and administrative efficiency, but it does these historical groups—like the Dalits and Adivasis—no justice. <--
