Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

NEP 2020 explicitly targets raising the higher education Gross Enrolment Ratio from 26.3 per cent to 50 per cent by 2035, so A is a recommendation. It also proposes a light but tight regulatory system under a single overarching body, the Higher Education Commission of India, so C is a recommendation. Opening 1500 new universities is not part of the policy, and the research thrust is meant for all disciplines rather than only science and technology.
