The Indian Parliament approved the draft National Policy on Education in May 1986. The then Human Resource Development Minister Mr. P.V.Narasimha Rao assured the Parliament that its implementation would not run into difficulties due to financial constraints. It may be recalled that the former Prime Minister Mr. Rajiv Gandhi had given the promise of formulating a new educational policy just after he assumed office. The main features of this policy are as follows :
» In the new educational policy it is stressed that a human being is apositive asset and a precious national resource which needs to be cherished,nurtured and developed with tenderness and care, coupled with dynamism. Hence education is regarded essential for all. This is fundamental to our all round development, material and spiritual. Education is a unique investment in the present and the future. This cardinal principle is the key to the National Policy on Education. The Policy attempts to formulate a National System of Education for which effective measures will be taken in the direction of the Common School System recommended in the 1968 policy. The National System of Education envisages a common educational structure. It will be based on a national curricular framework which contains a common core alongwith other components that are flexible. The common core will include history of India's freedom movement, the constitutional obligations and other contents essential to national identity. It seeks t to promote values such as india's common cultural heritage, egalitarianism, democracy and secularism,equality of the sexes, protection of environment, removal of social barriers, observance of the small family norm and inculcation of scientific temper. The new Education has to strengthen our world view and motivate the younger generation for international co-operation and peaceful co-existence.
