The policy, he said, is comprehensive, and exhaustive and addresses linguistic diversity as the strength in the inclusive development of the nation. He was speaking at the inaugural of two-day conference of Central University Vice-Chancellors, on “Devising Action Plan for Faster and Smoother Implementation of NEP 2020” at Central University of Tamil Nadu, Tiruvarur, 318 km from here.

Also, Ravi urged scholars to carry out indepth research on the pre-colonial glory of India and re-establish the lost links of the Bharathiya knowledge system.
“Nation is celebrating Azadi-Ka-Amrit Mahotsav, 75 years of India’s Independence. The country is marching ahead with unprecedented self-confidence and determination,” he said. The next quarter century of “Amrit Kaal” is a crucial phase for the nation, Ravi said.
