“We will achieve 100% implementation of ‘One Nation, One Student ID’ through the Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry (APAAR) to store academic qualifications, credit scores and certificates, among others for students from pre-primary to higher education.”
The Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry (APAAR), the "One Nation, One Student ID" system aligned with NEP 2020 and the National Credit Framework, has scaled rapidly: over 33.85 crore APAAR IDs had been registered and linked to the Academic Bank of Credits via DigiLocker by November 2025, and CBSE mandated APAAR as the primary identifier for affiliated schools. However, registration remains voluntary (requiring parental consent) and is not yet universal, so the pledge’s explicit target of 100 per cent implementation has not been reached.

View sourceIn the last ten years, we have developed a robust skill development ecosystem. In line with the objectives of NEP, we will further enhance it and integrate it with our education system. We will continue to work with industry to expand skilling opportunities that lead to employment and self-employment.
We will make our youth future ready by adopting a dynamic learning curriculum at school level as mandated by NEP and by incorporating industry-aligned curriculum and skill development in emerging technologies in higher education.

For this, we will strengthen the network of PM SHRI Schools, Ekalavya Schools and other such schools as per NEP to make them world-class. We will work towards a 100% Gross Enrollment Ratio from pre-school to secondary level.
