A per the NEP 2020, curbing of commercialization of education will be effected by following measures
A. Making all transactions online
B. Ensuring that educational institutions will be held to similar standards of audit
C. Making disclosure as a 'not for profit' entity
D. Ensuring that private institutions should donate fund for charity
E. Asking institutions to reinvest their surpluses in educational sector
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
B, C, and E only
NEP 2020 recognises that unchecked commercialization of education undermines access, equity and quality, and it lays down specific accountability measures for curbing it, particularly for private and philanthropic institutions.
Ensuring that all educational institutions, whether public or private, are held to similar standards of financial audit and disclosure creates transparency and prevents private players from operating with opaque, profit-driven practices — this is a genuine NEP 2020 measure.
Requiring institutions to make full disclosure of their finances as a 'not for profit' entity ensures that any surplus generated is not being siphoned off as disguised profit, directly targeting the core mechanism of commercialization — this too is a genuine measure.
Asking institutions to reinvest their surpluses back into the educational sector, rather than distributing them as profit, ensures that funds generated by an institution are used to further educational goals, which is explicitly the NEP 2020 approach to preventing commercialization — this is a genuine measure.
Simply making all transactions online is a digitisation-related idea but is not one of the specific accountability mechanisms NEP 2020 lays out for curbing commercialization.
Similarly, mandating that private institutions donate funds for charity is not the NEP 2020 approach — the policy's actual emphasis is on reinvestment of surplus within the educational sector itself, not on charitable donation as a separate obligation.
Hence, the measures genuinely prescribed by NEP 2020 for curbing commercialization are holding institutions to similar audit standards, disclosure as not-for-profit entities, and reinvestment of surplus in the education sector.
