Abstract

The material is to go back to the work of the master-academicians of British Rule and Post British Rule times. Some asked for radical change in the education system, like Rabindranath Tagore; but people like M. K. Gandhi were moderate and thought of self-sufficient education system. Many other academicians till date are figuring out new educational policies either to ‘decolonize' or ‘revitalize' Indian Education System; this being the Indian ‘post-modern deconstruction' of rigid and orthodox being replaced by progressive and invigorating policies; not giving up the old but ‘revitalizing' the old in new scenario.
