Abstract

The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, engineered to design an ‘India-centric’ education ecosystem proficiently equipped to disseminate education of the highest calibre to all in a tenable manner, seeks to transform India into a ‘vibrant knowledge-driven society’. In this pursuit, it intends to restore and revive the country’s long-lost stand which, once, was recognised as the seat of knowledge of the world. With a vision to promulgate and reintroduce India on the world map as a ‘global knowledge’ powerhouse, the architects of the new education policy have drawn inspiration from the greatest Indian minds, the likes of Sri Aurobindo and Swami Vivekananda. In this vein, Prime Minister, Narendra Modi during his monthly radio broadcast on Mann ki Baat 2.0, on 29th November 2020, apprised his countrymen of Sri Aurobindo's vision of national education on which was based the NEP 2020. From this perspective, the subsequent work shall explore, examine, and explicate Sri Aurobindo’s fundamental theory on education while also presenting the readers, his rationale for the subscription of an integral educational structure.
