UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

NEP 2020 recommends “bagless days” and short-term internships from about Grade 6, during which students visit workplaces and work with local experts to gain practical exposure and respect for different forms of work.

Option A:
Avoiding interaction with real workplaces would weaken vocational education and is contrary to NEP’s goal of integrating work-based learning with schooling.

Option B:
This option is correct because it describes the concrete mechanisms the policy proposes—bagless days and local internships—to connect students with crafts and trades.

Option C:
Online videos can support learning but cannot fully replace hands-on observation and interaction with practitioners.

Option D:
Focusing only on large multinational companies ignores the many local opportunities and is impractical for most schools.
