Tilak also emphasized the need for democratization and decentralization of the educational system.
Prof. Tilak, who developed the development of educational policies from 1944 to 2020, said the National Knowledge Commission played a key role in the reform of higher education.
“The 1986 policy emphasized education in the sector, while in 2009 the Law on Education Right was introduced, which recognized education as the fundamental law for all,” he said.
He said that although the field of education has seen considerable progress and is closely associated with social and economic development, a large number of students will still end education at primary, university and university levels.
