Description: ABSTRACT: “The best and noblest parts of man depend precious little on culture, education, and whatever else it is called”- Wilhelm Von Humboldt. To probably understand the methods and models of education that can be effectively implemented today, understanding the evolution and development of education may pave the way to cater to present needs. In the context of the National Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020) passed by the Government of India, the author makes an effort to know the history and evolution of education from pre-independence to the post-independence era. The author also compares successful education models adopted by other countries to analyze India’s education policies critically. Keywords: Higher Education, National Education policy, Higher Education in India, Humboldt.
