While inaugurating the Shikshak Parv conclave through video conference, "N-DEAR is likely to play a major role in eradicating inequality in education and its

The Prime Minister said that 'Vidyanjali 2.0' is like a platform for the country's resolve of 'Sabka Prayas' with 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas'. In this society, our private sector has to come forward and contribute to increasing the quality of education in government schools, he said. 'Vidyanjali 2.0', a portal launched for facilitating education volunteers, donors and CSR contributors for school development.

PM Modi also launched the School Quality Assessment and Assurance Framework (SQAAF) which would address the deficiency of the absence of a common scientific framework for dimensions like curriculumcum, pedagogy, assessment, infrastructure, inclusive practices and governance process. SQAAF will help in bridging this inequality.
