The philosophy of inclusive education was added in District Primary Education Programme (DPEP) in _________ year.

The correct answer is
1997

Question Type: General Knowledge

This question tests knowledge of the District Primary Education Programme (DPEP) in India. The correct answer requires recalling the year the philosophy of inclusive education was incorporated.

Step-by-Step Solution:

  • The District Primary Education Programme (DPEP) is an initiative aimed at improving primary education in India.
  • A key development in DPEP was the integration of inclusive education, which promotes equal opportunities for all children regardless of their abilities or disabilities.
  • The year this philosophy was added to DPEP was 1997.

Why other options are incorrect:

  • 1966, 1950, and 2012: These years are not associated with the inclusion of inclusive education philosophy in the DPEP program. DPEP itself began much later than these dates. While education reforms happened in those years, they are not directly related to the specific inclusion of inclusive education in DPEP.

Therefore, the correct answer is 1997.
