NEW DELHI:Ensuring balanced nutrition for students through ‘Poshan Abhiyan’ is an important pillar of education reform. Good nutrition will enhance the concentration and learning ability of children and help them develop into healthy, confident and capable citizens, which will fulfill the dream of ‘Developed India’, said Union Education Minister Shri Dharmendra Pradhan.
Attending a one-day state-level workshop on ‘National Education Policy 2020 – Implementation, Challenges and Opportunities’ held in Bhopal on Sunday, Shri Pradhan said, Madhya Pradesh is emerging as a leading state in taking forward both the National Education Policy – 2020 and Indian culture at the same pace. Under the guidance of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, we are determined to establish an education system full of self-respect, completely free from colonial mentality by 2035. He further said, Madhya Pradesh will remain a young state for the next 25 years and will play a decisive role in the vision of a developed India. When traditional knowledge is combined with new technology through the use of AI, then Madhya Pradesh and other states of the country will get a new dimension of the 21st century. For this, he called upon Madhya Pradesh to be a leader through initiatives like ‘AI Tutor’.
The Madhya Pradesh Government’s ‘School Chalen Hum’ campaign is playing a vital role in connecting every child to school, reducing drop-out rates and bringing modern teaching methods to schools. More and more children are getting connected with education and are being empowered with knowledge and culture, thus moving towards realizing the dream of ‘Developed Madhya Pradesh’ and ‘Developed India’. Students are enthusiastically participating in various extra-curricular activities with skills like sports, cultural performances and karate, which is commendable. This initiative of the Madhya Pradesh Government has given a new dimension to quality education and overall development.
The event was attended by the Governor of Madhya Pradesh, Shri Mangubhai Patel, Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav and other dignitaries. During the visit, Shri Pradhan visited Kamala Nehru Sandipani Girls’ School, Bhopal and interacted with the students, teachers and parents.
