About 25 crore Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry (APAAR) have been created, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said on Tuesday in New Delhi. Mr. Pradhan was speaking at a national conference on ‘APAAR: One Nation One Student ID Card.’
APAAR aims to provide a unified and accessible academic experience for students across India by assigning a unique and permanent 12-digit ID to every student, consolidating their academic achievements in one place.
It is an initiative introduced in alignment with the National Education Policy (NEP) of 2020 and the National Credit and Qualifications Framework (NCrF).
