| Summary, etc | The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 aims to centralize and standardize higher education, but this paper critically examines how it serves as a vehicle for commodification and privatization, aligning with neoliberal principles. While explicit privatization may provoke resistance from stakeholders, the policy strategically incorporates New Public Management (NPM) principles to embed neoliberal reforms within governance structures, allowing for greater privatization under the guise of educational management improvements. The study highlights how the adoption of market-driven strategies, performance-based evaluations, and privatized funding models shifts the focus from public welfare to economic efficiency, leading to a system where education becomes a commodity rather than a fundamental right. By analyzing these trends, the paper critiques the underlying motivations of NEP 2020, questioning its impact on accessibility, affordability, and equity within higher education. This discussion contributes to the broader debate on how educational reforms may serve economic interests rather than the holistic development of learners and society. – Reproduced |
