UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

NEP 2020 recommends using school complexes and data-driven planning to rationalise teacher deployment so that all schools, especially in rural and remote areas, have the required subject teachers and fewer vacancies.

Option A:
Option A is incorrect because continuing ad-hoc arrangements without planning has created long-term shortages and inequities, which the policy aims to correct.

Option B:
Option B is correct as it reflects the structural approach of using complexes and planning tools to distribute teachers more evenly and reduce vacancies.

Option C:
Option C is wrong since posting teachers only in urban schools would worsen rural educational disadvantage.

Option D:
Option D is incorrect because ignoring subject-wise requirements leads to mismatches between curriculum needs and teacher expertise.
