An important meeting of State cabinet will be held in Bhubaneswar on Wednesday. The meeting will be held at 4 pm today under the chairmanship of Chief Minister Mohan Majhi.
As per sources, the New Education Policy 2020 may be approved by the cabinet. That apart, many other proposals of other departments may also get the cabinet nod.
However, nothing about the elaborate agenda of the cabinet has been cleared yet.
Earlier a few days back, Odisha government had announced that the National Education Policy 2020 will be implemented in government Universities and affiliated colleges across the State from the current academic session (2024-25).
The implementation of the NEP 2020 is aimed at bringing a sea change in the education system in the State. According to the New Education Policy 2020, a four-year undergraduate course is set to begin in the state, where eligible students will receive a certificate, diploma, degree, and degree with honours at the end of each year.
On the basis of the credit framework provided by the UGC, a state-level credit framework has been prepared, wherein opportunities for credits for skill development and internships have been provided.
