Jammu- The Union Territory Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha said on Monday that National Education Policy (NEP) has provided immense possibilities to elevate the learning, create a conducive environment for critical thinking, creativity, individuality and inquisitiveness to flourish so that the young children can learn new things.
