Abstract

To appraise a bulky official document with numerous reforms and huge agenda in a single article is bound to have limitations. Further, in a vast and diverse population differences of opinion are natural. Hence, readers are advised to go through critically the first three references to understand the gargantuan task involved. Subsequently, readers may go through the various responses on different aspects which were appearing in various links given. The present article appraises the issues from overlooked and / or less emphasized angles and suggests regional/central governments and faculty and students friendly approaches to be ultimately successful. Each goal can have a different time dimension. Some useful reforms which can be immediately and easily implemented have been highlighted. Some additional strategies have been suggested for achieving the goals mentioned in the NEP. Lastly, but not the least, author whole heartedly acknowledges the caliber and commitment of all the persons associated in the framing and drafting of NEP. It has been recommended to reflect on the lack of uniformity in power, pay and perks among the various categories of faculty and concurrent and parallel system of education in state and central governments. A mention has been made aobut the various categories of educational institutions, population of India, increasing mandatory working days and hours and resource limitations.
