Education Ministers from Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and Kerala hit out at the National Education Policy 2020 at a convention organised by the All India Students Federation here on Sunday.
The convention called for a united struggle of students and teachers of all educational institutions for the withdrawal of the NEP, the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) and the Central Universities Common Entrance Test (CUET).
Maharashtra Minister for Housing Jitendra Awhad said the NEP was yet another instance of the Centre infringing upon the rights of the States. Terming it a “National Exclusion Policy,” he said if implemented, it would take education beyond the reach of those who needed it.
