This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2023 Electronic Science Question Paper (13-Dec-2023) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

A, B, C and E only

The correct answer is A, B, C and E only — Science, Mathematics, Technology and Engineering.

One of the central ideas of NEP 2020 is the removal of rigid boundaries between disciplines and the promotion of a multidisciplinary, holistic education. In building this case, the policy points to research evidence: assessments of undergraduate programmes have consistently shown positive learning outcomes where the humanities and the arts are integrated with the STEM disciplines. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, and all four of these appear among the listed options.

Step by step, the correct set therefore includes Science, Mathematics, Technology and Engineering — the four fields the policy groups together when citing improved outcomes from arts-plus-STEM integration.

Mass Media is the one item that does not belong to this STEM cluster and is not named by NEP 2020 in this particular claim about consistently positive outcomes. Consequently, every option that contains Mass Media — whether paired with Science and Engineering, or with Technology and Engineering — is incorrect, and the option limited to just Mathematics and Technology is too narrow because it omits Science and Engineering.

Hence the answer is Science, Mathematics, Technology and Engineering.
