Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has written to Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin urging the state to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the PM SHRI scheme. This initiative is part of the Central government's commitment to ensuring that every child in India benefits from the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. The PM SHRI scheme aims to transform schools across the country, providing quality education and infrastructure. However, there have been allegations that the Tamil Nadu government is not responding to the union government's efforts, with disputes over the norms of the MoU. Pradhan's letter emphasizes the importance of collaboration between the central and state governments to achieve educational reforms.
