School Education Minister: T.N. firm in its opposition to National Education Policy

The Tamil Nadu government is firmly opposed to the National Education Policy, 2020 (NEP 2020) and there has been no change in its stance just because it has agreed to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish PM SHRI (Prime Minister Schools for Rising India) schools in the State, School Education Minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi said on Saturday, March 16, 2024.

The PM SHRI scheme targets the upgradation of existing government schools, to turn them into model schools for the implementation of the NEP 2020.

Anil Mahesh Poyyamozhi said he had clearly conveyed the State government’s stand on the issue to the Union Minister for Education.
