The liberal approach brought in by the National Education Policy-2020 will help students combine the subjects of their choice, ensuring wholistic learning, former Chairman of the NEP-2020 drafting committee K. Kasturirangan, has said.
Delivering his address at the combined annual convocation of the Sri Venkateswara University (SVU) on Thursday, Dr. Kasturirangan, who now heads the National Steering Committee for National Curriculum Framework, said that the idea of liberal education has been vividly discussed in the classical Indian texts such as Banabhatta’s Kadambari written some 1,400 years ago.
