Vice-Chancellor of Central University of Karnataka, Kalaburagi, Battu Satyanarayana has said that the new curriculum recommended under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 with focus on India’s rich culture and history will help transform the future generations of the country.
He was delivering the inaugural address at a two-day seminar on “Vachana Literature and Other Disciplines: An Interface” jointly organised by the university and Basava Samiti, Bengaluru, in Kalaburagi on Friday.
Prof. Satyanarayana said that the Indian education system has been influenced by British theories for a long time. “Consequently, Indian youths are more attracted to western culture than our own. And, this element has held back our 5,000-year-old civilisation from becoming a progressive society in today’s world,” he said.
