According to the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, Olympiads and competitions in various subjects will be strengthened across the country. The NEP encourages the enhancement of academic and extracurricular competitions to foster critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a deeper understanding of subjects among students. The aim is to provide opportunities for students to excel and showcase their talents while maintaining high academic standards. The policy does not advocate for reducing or discouraging such competitions but rather emphasizes making them more enriching and accessible to a wider range of students.
