New Delhi: As per the latest official statement of JNU on February 20, 2022, the vice-chancellors of the two leading universities, Delhi University and Jawaharlal Nehru University held a meeting in Delhi to discuss various strategies to implement NEP 2020 in their respective universities. 

The meeting of Delhi University and Jawaharlal Nehru University was held in the presence of DU Vice-Chancellor Professor Yogesh Singh and JNU Vice-Chancellor, Professor Santishree Pandit, and Rector of JNU. The meeting was held in JNU campus. 

Referring to the discussion, DU VC Professor Yogesh Singh stated that the meeting was held with the VC of Jawaharlal Nehru University mainly to discuss the National Education Policy 2020 and how to implement the same in the universities from the coming academic session. 

Adding to the statement, he said, “We did discuss the NEP implementation but frameworks for DU and JNU will be quite different. JNU primarily has post-graduate courses and not many bachelor’s courses".

"For DU, on the other hand, the framework is only for undergraduate courses. For PG courses, we will be discussing and debating the framework only after a year or two when the requirement arises,” Singh further added.
