Opposition criticises Centre for forcibly implementing NEP, streamlining education power, and altering state systems

Opposition leaders in Rajya Sabha accused the government of forcibly imposing the National Education Policy on states, undermining their autonomy. They also claimed the Centre is withholding education funds for opposition-ruled states. Key issues include syllabus revisions, centralisation of appointment powers, and curbing funds, which are seen as violating the Right to Education Act.
