Centre Drives Efforts for Effective Preschool Teacher Training in NEP 2020 Push
Nalanda Learning Partners with Rotary to Design Teacher Training Programs for Early Learning, Aligning with National Education Policy Goals
In a move aimed at bolstering the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the Centre urged all state governments to incorporate preschool foundational learning into the formal curriculum. This directive, targeting children aged 3 to 6 years, underscores India’s commitment to advancing educational standards nationwide.
Recognizing the significance of foundational literacy and numeracy (FLN), commonly referred to as FLN, India, alongside other nations in the Global South, emphasizes the critical role of early childhood care and education (ECCE) in fostering these essential skills.
Speaking at an event organized by the Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC) commemorating the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between Nalanda Learning, a leading preschool education company operating under the brand “Little Laureates,” and the Florida-based Rotary Action Group, Anup Rajput, head of publication at NCERT, Ministry of Education, highlighted the urgency of achieving FLN skills. Rajput emphasized the need to shine a similar spotlight on ECCE to realize FLN goals effectively.
“The NEP 2020 guidelines also direct schools and pre-schools to teach children in a holistic student centred manner through interactive physical and digital assets. Nalanda Learning’s integrated digital platform, incorporating engaging content, live classes, and interactive games, serves as a catalyst for the development of literacy and cognitive skills in early learners. Hence there is an imminent need of skilled teacher training programme for successful implementation of NEP 2020,” said Rajput.
Founder Tamal Mukherjee emphasized the organization’s pivotal role in aligning with NEP 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework, offering comprehensive support to stakeholders in the early childhood education sector.
“Nalanda Learning is playing a key role in the implementation of early child education as guided under NEP 2020 and National Curriculum Framework by educating all the stakeholders and not just preschool owners. It is creating an atmosphere for teachers training, community development, and caregiver development and also helping them with sustainable technology,” Mukherjee said.
Mukherjee underscored the importance of ECCE not only in preparing children for school but also for life, emphasizing its role in shaping cognitive and physical development. With the evolution of teaching methods towards learner-centered classrooms and experiential learning, Nalanda Learning stands out as a crucial resource for preschools seeking guidance in implementing holistic education approaches.
“Rotary International task force is helping Nalanda Learning not only for Indian education system but also globally to educate the stakeholders involved in early child care education as designed by NCERT and Government of India,” Mukherjee said.
“As children already come to school at different levels of understanding, early primary school is always a catch-up game for them without a strong grasp of these basic essentials. Perhaps an even more important element is the development of body and brain that happens during this time and defines IQ and physical prowess for life, thereby making ECCE essential for not just school readiness but also life readiness,” added Mukherjee.

Celebration of Women in Mobility If women can bear the excruciating pain of childbirth, they can do any job: Dr K.C. Vohra
Hyderabad, March 08, 2024.……The SAEINDIA and BVRIT college on Friday celebrated Women’s Day at a special event BAJA SAEINDIA 2024 at its Narsapur campus.
It was an occasion to celebrate Women in Mobility said , . Women drive innovation in transportation. They are at the forefront of the mobility industry. Cummins India, a company today has a 40% representation of women in the company
Speaking further Dr Vohra who is the AllIndia Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and The Indian National Academy of Engineering (INAE) Distinguished Visiting Professor asked Why women are better than men? and if they can bear the excruciating pain of childbirth, they can do any job, he said. Women are equally stronger physically than men and mentally stronger than men.
The celebrations featured a few highly accomplished women in the automobile industry. They include Shivani Parmar, National Rally Driver from Mumbai; Khushbhoo Gupta from Hero Moto Corp, Gayatri Kemburu of Renault Nissan Tech; Elangeswari from Detroit Engineering Products; Gunnam Lasya, Senior Manager Tata Motors and Dr. H Sujana of BVRIT College
Dr. H Sujana of BVRIT College said women should believe in themselves. According to a Harward Survey, men believe in themselves more than women do.
Gayatri Kemburu of Renault Nissan Tech said it is a mind block of people that women can’t work in men-dominated industries such as manufacturing. It is no longer a men-dominated industry.
She added that 62% of Vietnam’s population works in the mobility sector. Whereas in India just 15 to 20%.
Sri Vishnu Institute of Technology, a girl engineering college’s 200 plus girls who worked on and produced more than 10 all-terrain off-road vehicles over a while proves their capabilities said Gunnam Lasya, Senior Manager of Tata Motors. Lasya is an alumnus of that college.
In Tata Motors more than 2000 women work in the all-women assembly line for Tata Safari and Harrier SUVs, shared Lasya, who is a crash safety lead at Tata Motors.
Diversity brings profit to the organization, said Gayatri. Companies are doing an exclusive diversity recruitment drive, she said.
The government is also emphasizing diversity. More and more industries are trying to recruit more women in old and new roles said Khushbhoo Gupta from Hero Moto Corp,
All the women in mobility shared their journey. Then they participated in a panel discussion. Deepti Singh, Deputy General Manager, Renault Nissan Tech, will moderate the panel discussion. She is also a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Ambassador of Renault Nissan.
The Women in Mobility program recognized and featured women leaders in the mobility sector, who have been exemplary role models to many. These women leaders shared their career experiences, and the learning they have acquired, and further inspired and empowered the budding leaders to excel in their professional journey.
The goal of this program was to increase the number of women in the field, facilitate a platform to share opportunities & explore synergies and provide tools for growth

The honeymoon with IT jobs is over. Core branches of Engineering are back in demand: Experts
Hyderabad, March 08, 2024…. While most Engineering colleges in Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, withdrew core branches of Engineering, BVRIT Narsapur Campus and Sri Vishnu Institute of Technology, Bhimavaram gave emphasis and importance to core branches of Engineering such as Mechanical, Automobile, Chemical, Civil Engineering and others. Poor admissions in core engineering branches are no doubt a cause for concern. But management has the social responsibility to sensitize students and parents about the importance of core branches, said Sri K V Vishnu Raju, Chairman of Sri Vishnu Educational Society (SVES).
He was inspecting sledge pull tests(where all-terrain vehicles built by students will pull a tractor. It is an evaluation test) of all-terrain off-road electric vehicles the students built to participate in the endurance test tomorrow. Mr Raju also toured the entire campus and interacted with students who came from 70 colleges across India. BVRIT Narsapur is the proud host of BAJA SAEINDIA 2024, a national-level engineering student out-of-classroom education event. This event came to Telangana, and thanks to BVRIT’s continuous participation and efforts, it was held in Hyderabad for the first time. The event is being organised first time in South India at BVRIT Narsapur campus, Mr. Vishnu Raju added.
To encourage core branches of education we have introduced Chemical Technology and Pharmacy at the graduation level, shared Mr Vishnu Raju.
The job opportunities are decreasing in the IT industry. The many new-age engineering streams are interdisciplinary. So, no one need not worry much about any particular core branch of engineering. All future jobs need engineers with interdisciplinary skills. BAJA SAEINIDA competition gives practical knowledge and experience to budding engineers.
If PM Modi’s dreams of making India a hub of the semiconductor industry become a reality, then we will need more engineers in core branches. The core branch engineers in future will be like IAS officers, he explained
Today’s cars are more automated. They are no longer mechanical cars. They are smart electrical devices. These all need engineers of cross-discipline, Mr Raju shared
The management must create excitement around core branches of engineering. The students of the core branches must be made to realize and feel proud about their stream, he said.
The Telangana government last year unveiled Telangana Mobility Valley, India’s first new mobility-focused cluster to accelerate the growth of sustainability mobility in the country. Telangana Mobility Valley (TMV) aims to attract investments of around Rs 50,000 crore and generate more than 4 lakh jobs in the next 5 years. If that becomes a reality imagine the kind of jobs it generates and gives jobs to core branch engineers, he added
Many educationists and leaders of the SVES who accompanied Mr Raju felt that the honeymoon with IT Jobs was over. Core branches of engineering are back reckoning and are in demand.
