Towards this end, the PM Shri School scheme seems like a step in the right direction. If these model schools can be effectively implemented and set the benchmark for NEP 2020 execution, they can serve as proof that technology in education is the way forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Prime Minister (PM) of India, Narendra Modi made an announcement on the occasion of Teachers\u2019 Day to upgrade 14,500 schools nationwide under the Pradhan Mantri Schools for Rising India (PM-SHRI) programme.
