  • Abstract:
  • The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 introduced sweeping changes to the Indian education system, emphasizing a more holistic, interdisciplinary approach. Among its many reforms, one key change has been the loosening of subject boundaries, which has impacted the traditional status of core subjects like Chemistry. This research explores how NEP 2020 has affected the status of Chemistry as a core subject in secondary and higher education, examining the policy’s provisions, its interdisciplinary approach, and the response of institutions and students. Through data collection and analysis, we assess whether Chemistry has been sidelined and if students' interest in it has waned due to the new flexibility in subject selection. The study concludes with insights into the long-term implications of NEP 2020 on Chemistry education.
