Abstract
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 in India represents a significant overhaul aimed at revitalizing the country's education system. Central to its objectives is the integration and revitalization of the Indian knowledge systems (IKS), aiming to restore and promote traditional knowledge alongside contemporary education. This paper examines the implications of NEP 2020 on the Indian knowledge system, analyzing its potential impact, challenges, and opportunities for the educational landscape in India. The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 marks a significant shift in India's approach to education by emphasizing the integration of Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS). This paper explores the historical context, the rationale behind this integration, and the potential impact on contemporary education. Through an analysis of NEP 2020, we investigate how traditional knowledge, including ancient sciences, languages, arts, and philosophical systems, can be harmoniously blended with modern educational practices to foster a holistic learning environment. This research paper provides a structured overview of how NEP 2020 aims to target the Indian knowledge system, examining its objectives, strategies, potential impacts, and challenges.
