6. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, it may be difficult, but not insurmountable, to achieve equitable and high-quality education given the current challenges, including the digital gap and the language of instruction for classroom interactions. These issues are intricately related and reflect both past and contemporary socio-economic issues. These barriers have been identified and coordinated efforts by governments, educational institutions, families, and communities are in place which aim to create a more inclusive and just educational environment. The path-breaking NEP2020 and the equally futuristic, equitable and inclusive National Curriculum Framework for School Education 2023 have in no uncertain terms delineated the path for India and its schooling ecosystem in the coming years. In fact, the NEP 2020 has given timelines for completion of its implementation. We quote from the policy itself to sum up our discussion—“In the decade of 2030-40, the entire policy will be in an operational mode, following which another comprehensive review will be undertaken.” India is poised to assume leadership role in the world in the education sector in the coming years.
