Prelude :

The Draft National education Policy has been prepared by the Ministry of Human Resources Development (MHRD) for revamping the structure of education of India. The reason bearing in mind that India is growing fast under the new government and there is a growing need to match and better the Indian Education when compared to the Common Minimum International Standard of Education, making the student, ready to graduate with an International perspective. This will be resulting in easy acceptability in the international manpower resource pool.

Background:
