Contemporary India and Education deals with the dynamic connection between India’s evolving social structure and its educational system. It focuses on how education is influenced by various aspects such as caste, class, gender, religion, regional disparities, and economic status. In modern India, education is seen not only as a means of personal development but also as a tool for social transformation and nation-building. The pedagogy includes the study of constitutional provisions like the Right to Education (RTE), policies like the National Education Policy (NEP), and programs aimed at improving access and equity in education. Challenges such as dropout rates, digital divides, quality of education, and inclusive practices are key areas of concern. The course also highlights the role of education in promoting democratic values, social justice, and unity in diversity. Thus, understanding contemporary India through the lens of education helps future educators and policymakers shape a system that is equitable, inclusive, and progressive, meeting the needs of a rapidly changing society.
