Karnataka is set to become the first state in the country to implement the new National Education Policy, Deputy Chief Minister Dr. C N Ashwath Narayan said on Monday.
"The State Government is making all preparations to bring in administrative reforms and amendments to the laws which are essential to implement the National Education Policy.
The state would become the first in the country to implement the policy," Narayan, who holds the portfolio of higher education, said while addressing the inaugural session of a five-day online workshop on "Highlights of the national education policy and its implementation."
The workshop is being organised by the Bangalore University.
The Deputy Chief Minister said the state government is going ahead with regard to this with specific goals and a clear agenda.
"A high level task force was constituted immediately after the draft of the policy reached us and this committee has already held several meetings," he added.
