Abstract
The National Education Policy 2020 represents a paradigm shift in India’s educational framework, marking the first comprehensive reform in over three decades. Concurrently, Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative technology with profound implications for educational delivery, accessibility and quality. This paper examines the intersection of Al applications and the NEP 2020 implementation, analyzing how Al can serve as a catalyst in achieving the policy’s core objectives of equity, quality, affordability and accountability in education. Through critical analysis of existing AI initiatives in Indian education and exploration of potential future applications, this research identifies key integration pathways aligned with NEP 2020’s vision. This paper further examines challenges in Al adoption within the Indian educational context including infrastructure limitations, digital divide concerns, data privacy issues and the need for teacher up-skilling. Recommendations for policymakers, educational institutions and technology developers emphasize a collaborative approach that balances technological innovation with cultural context and pedagogical soundness. As India navigates this educational transformation, the synergy between AI technologies and NEP 2020 implementation offers unprecedented opportunities to address long standing challenges while preparing learners for an increasingly digital future.
