Popis: The New Education Policy, 2020 is a comprehensive framework for the upliftment of India’s education system. It has not only focused on a few novel issues related to our society but also sought to pave new ways for the transformation of our overall education sector. The inculcation of India’s glorious heritage, culture and art into the fold of our education system through this NEP has been precisely acclaimed by learned fraternities. Since, these ideas are yet to be successfully been materialised in all the corners of India, there remains certain fundamental and inherent issues which are catching the attention of policymakers and scholars. Assam being situated in the fringe corner of North East India has equally facing an unwanted confusion of not sensitising its common people about the concept of teaching and learning the chequered history of the land. The paper here is therefore an exercise to mark out some of the pros and cons of teaching History subject in all grades of academia and unearth certain ways for better implementation and systematization of the process for the benefit of its new generations.
