Dimapur — Kendriya Vidyalaya (KV) in Dimapur and Kohima commemorated the third anniversary of National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 held in their respective schools on Friday.

Speaking at the programme in Dimapur, the school principal, MH Shimray, said the NEP 2020 would play a crucial role if implemented in ‘letter and spirit’ and added that the policy was appreciated by many educationists, political leaders and others.

Describing NEP 2020 as a wonderful and ambitious policy, he however remarked that its implementation could be a problem as under the new policy students till Class 5 would be taught in their mother tongue, whereas the students are from different backgrounds.

Stating that NEP 2020 has many advantages as students have a multitude of options to choose from, he encouraged them not to limit themselves to one thing but to broaden their horizons. He added that by 2025, they must achieve the minimum target of NEP.
