[1] NEP 2020: A FRAMEWORK FOR INSTITUTIONAL READINESS AND ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE

Dr. R. K. Behera — 2026-08-03

The National Education Policy 2020 marks the most significant reform in the Indian education system since 1986, envisioning a holistic,
multidisciplinary, inclusive, flexible, and globally competitive higher education ecosystem. While the policy presents transformative aspirations, successful implementation depends largely on the preparedness of higher education institutions (HEIs). This paper develops a conceptual framework integrating Institutional Readiness, Academic Innovation, and Sustainable Quality Enhancement (IASQ Framework) to explain how higher education institutions can effectively implement NEP 2020. Unlike studies that primarily describe policy provisions, this article proposes an original institutional model demonstrating the dynamic relationship between
leadership, governance, faculty development, curriculum innovation, technology integration, student-centred learning, quality assurance, research culture, community engagement, and continuous improvement. The framework emphasizes that institutional transformation is not merely structural but cultural, requiring strategic leadership, collaborative governance, evidence-based planning, digital transformation, and sustainable quality mechanisms. The article further discusses implementation challenges, policy implications, and strategic recommendations for universities and affiliated colleges. The proposed framework contributes to educational policy discourse by providing a comprehensive roadmap for assessing institutional readiness while promoting innovation and continuous quality enhancement in higher education.

[2] संतों की साधना में शिवशक्ति ऊर्जा का महत्व

डॉ. सुषमा यादव (Dr. Sushma Yadav) — 2026-08-03

-संसार का कोई भी पुरुष मात्र पुरुष भर नहीं होता, न ही स्त्री मात्र स्त्री भर । दोनों ही स्त्री और पुरुष ऊर्जा का सम्मिलित रूप है । एक पुरुष जब सिर्फ अपनी पुरुष ऊर्जा को ही आधार मानकर उसको ऊपर उठाकर जीवन‌ जीना शुरू कर देता है तो दुनिया में पुरुष उर्जा और अधिक बढ़ जाती है । नतीजन, दुनिया में युद्ध, तनाव, संघर्ष, जैसी ऊर्जा का बढ़ जाना, परिस्थिति उत्पन्न हो जाना । पुरुष ऊर्जा यानी ( मैस्क्युलिन इनर्जी ) संकेत ( indicate ) करती है चेतना को, 3D वर्ड को यानी भौतिक दुनिया ( materialistic world) को । जबकि स्त्री ऊर्जा ( फैमिनाइन इनर्जी ) यानी स्त्री ऊर्जा दर्शाती है पोषण को, सक्रिय भावना को, ‌प्रेम को, समर्पण को और सहज बुद्धि या अन्य: प्रज्ञा को ( Intuition Power) को, अध्यात्मिक दुनिया को यानी 5D world को । मानव शरीर ऊर्जा का सम्मिलित रूप है । ये तरंगें निरंतन उठती रहती है मनुष्य के मूलाधार से लेकर सहस्त्रात तक । मनुष्य के कार्य उसके विचार उसकी भावनाएं उसका दैंनदिन की क्रियाएं इन्हीं चक्रों पर आधारित होती है । कौन सा चक्र शरीर में कितना जाग्रत और कितना संतुलित अवस्था में है ये मनुष्य के कार्यकलापों उसके विचारों से पता चलता है । जैसे कृष्ण ने अपनी गीता में मनुष्य के सम्पूर्ण व्यक्तित्व का आधार गुणों को माना है, जिसमें सतोगुण, रजोगुण और तमोगुण आतें हैं । इसी को उर्जा के रूप में 7 चक्रों की उर्जा से जाना जाता है जोकि स्त्री और पुरुष को पूर्ण बनाते हैं । यह कोई नयी कहानी या सिद्धांत नहीं बल्कि भारतीय दर्शन का सबसे प्राचीन और मनुष्य की होने को निशानी है । पुरुष और स्त्री ऊर्जा के मिलन बिंदु को ही, इन दोनों ऊर्जाओं के साथ-साथ होने को मनुष्य के भीतर ही भारतीय दर्शन में अर्द्धनारीश्वर रुप भी कहा गया है । जो हर मनुष्य चाहे स्त्री हो या कि पुरुष दोनों में चैतन्य रूप से व्याप्त है ‌। जरुरत है तो मात्र उसको पहचानने की । इसी अर्धनारीश्वर रूप को या इन दो ऊर्जाओं को भक्ति संत अपने जीवन में कैसे जगा रहे थे ? कैसे इसको अपने अस्तित्व में उतार कर अपने दैनंदिन जीवन की गतिविधियों से दो-चार हो रहे थे । अपने जीवन को परमात्मा के प्रति समर्पण कर अपने व्यावहारिक जगत और आध्यात्मिक जगत को धन्य बना रहे थे उसमें संतुलन स्थापित कर रहे थे इसी पर आधारित है यह सम्पूर्ण लेख।

[3] SOCIAL REFORMS: RAJA RAM MOHAN ROY CONTRIBUTION

Gurbux Rai — 2026-08-03

In the early 19th century the study of liberal ideas created an awakening in the education class who decided to remove the inherent evils in the Indian society. Bengal played the leading role in the new awakening of India. Raja Ram Mohan Roy was the central figure in the new awakening in India. For his pioneering efforts in Social Reforms and creating new awakening among the people, he was been regarded as the Father of the “Indian Renaissance” or even “Father of Modern India”.1His greatest glory lay in this, that in the midst of thick, brooding darkness he saw afar the vision of New India and bravely laboured against large odds. He was not just a founder of a religion and he wanted his countrymen to accept not only the rational and scientific approach but also principles of human dignity and social equity of all men and women. His political, social, educational ideas and activities enriched the field of social work in India. He had done many social work related activities that helped in uplifting Indian society. Social work is a practice based profession that promotes social changes tosocial development.

[4] BEYOND TEACHING : ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE THROUGH PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND RESEARCH TO MEET CHALLENGES OF HIGHER EDUCATION

Jyoti Ashish Vasavada — 2026-08-05

Higher education is navigating a complex landscape defined by escalating tuition costs, an impending demographic cliff, rapid technological disruptions, and shifting cultural demands. To overcome these operational and structural hurdles and avoid institutional obsolescence, universities must look "beyond teaching" and re-evaluate their core definitions of academic excellence. This article examines how higher education institutions can leverage robust professional development and innovative research frameworks to elevate institutional performance and sustain longterm relevance. By expanding faculty responsibilities beyond traditional classroom instruction to include the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL), interdisciplinary collaboration, active mentorship, and governance, institutions can build a dynamic academic ecosystem. Furthermore, integrating modern pedagogical training, open science, AI-augmented research models, and strategic resource optimization enables universities to re-align curricula with workforce demands, improve student retention, and clearly demonstrate a return on investment. Ultimately, this paper outlines how holistic faculty development and innovative scholarly practices serve as critical catalysts for institutional resilience and academic quality in a
rapidly changing world.

[5] WORKFLOW-FIRST AI IN SCHOOLS: BALANCING ETHICS, TRANSPARENCY AND INSTRUCTIONAL OUTCOMES IN 2026

Pulukuri Mercin Babu, Rachapudi Jagannadha Rao & Damaraju Pradeep Kumar — 2026-08-05

In accordance with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF-SE) 2023, the mandatory integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Computational Thinking (CT) from Classes 3–8 starting in the 2026–2027 academic session is drastically changing India's educational system, which is the biggest in the world. The workflow-first model for AI deployment presented in this abstract gives organized educational processes—like human-curated lesson design, adaptive assessment, and teacher professional support— priority over the adoption of discrete tools. The framework emphasizes human-in-the-loop design to protect agency, reduce algorithmic bias, and guarantee explainability in multilingual, low-resource Indian classrooms. It is based on NITI Aayog's Responsible AI principles (safety and reliability, equality, inclusivity and non-discrimination, privacy and security, transparency, accountability, and protection of positive human values) and UNESCO's 2021 Recommendation on the Ethics of AI. While highlighting enduring issues of data privacy under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, infrastructural disparities, and the risk of reinforcing existing inequities, empirical insights from large-scale deployments, such as teacher–AI collaborative systems for curriculumaligned lesson generation in government schools, show quantifiable reductions in planning time, shifts toward activity-based pedagogy, and improved instructional coherence. By integrating ethical safeguards and transparency mechanisms—model documentation, auditability, and instructor oversight—directly into instructional sequences, a workflow-first approach optimizes learning results without sacrificing pedagogy to technology. This paradigm provides a scalable way to realize AI's potential to improve teacher capacity and personalized learning while maintaining constitutional values and human-centered education in the Indian context of linguistic diversity, unequal digital access, and the dual imperatives of equity and excellence under NEP 2020. The abstract concludes that workflowintegrated ethics and transparency must be institutionalized as nonnegotiable design principles rather than afterthoughts in order to achieve lasting educational improvements in 2026 and beyond.

[6] FEMINIST PUBLIC POLICY IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY

Mehar Sandhu — 2026-08-05

Feminist public policy has emerged as a transformative approach to governance by challenging structural inequalities and promoting gender equality through inclusive policymaking. Unlike traditional policy frameworks that often overlook the differentiated experiences of women and marginalized groups, feminist public policy integrates gender perspectives into policy design, implementation, and evaluation. In the twenty-first century, globalization, digital transformation, climate change, migration, and artificial intelligence have introduced new dimensions to gender inequality, requiring governments to adopt more responsive and intersectional policy approaches. This article examines the evolution of feminist public policy, its theoretical foundations, key policy domains, contemporary challenges, and future prospects. It argues that feminist public policy is not merely about increasing women's representation but about restructuring governance to ensure equity, participation, accountability, and social justice. The article concludes that integrating feminist principles into public policymaking contributes to democratic governance, sustainable development, and inclusive economic growth.
