The Centre of Excellence for Indian Knowledge Systems, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur (CoE-IKS, IIT KGP) in collaboration with CPDHE (UGC-HRDC), Univ. of Delhi with the IKS Division of MoE @ AICTE and Brhat Culture Creative LLP as knowledge partners presents 'bauddhika ātmanirbharatā with reference to Science and Technology, Faculty Development Programme 2022 about India's Knowledge Traditions – bhārata kī jñānaparamparāen: Recovery, Positioning and Mainstreaming (FDP_IKT: RPM 2022).
Scheduled 22 November to 9 December in the institutional premises, the FDP_IKT:RPM 2022 will support and strengthen the Government's resolve to create ātmanirbhara bhārata and bridge the gap between the vision of an IKS centered education espoused by New National Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020) and the levels of awareness, preparation and competency required to accomplish the same. The FDP_IKT: RPM 2022 is a step towards implementing NEP - adding spiritual power to the national education grid.
The NEP 2020 envisions an educational system patterned on the lines of cultural and artistic heritage while bringing a “scientific temper and evidence-based thinking to a sense of aesthetics and arts”. The chāndogya upanisad (8.11.4) speaks of ‘sa hā’parāṇi dvātriṁśāt varṣāṇyuvāsa’ meaning Lord Indra’s surrender to his guru Prajāpati for another thirty-two years for gaining supreme knowledge. Immersed in the above spirit of this bhārata kī jñāna paramparāyen, the FDP also presents ‘Rasānubhūti,’ - with the legends Smt. Kaushiki Chakraborty (Hindustani vocalist) and Ustad Amjad Ali Khan (Sarod Maestro), who exhibits a continuing lifelong journey of such a śikṣā paddhati grahana.
