NEP 2020 advocates a holistic approach in which arts, humanities and sciences complement each other. Integrating arts with STEM (often called STEAM) helps students visualise concepts, think creatively and communicate ideas better. This combination is seen as essential for innovation.
Option A:
Removing arts in favour of STEM alone would narrow education and contradict NEP’s stress on holistic development.
Option B:
This option captures the policy’s encouragement of cross-disciplinary learning where arts interplay with scientific and mathematical thinking. It therefore reflects NEP accurately and is correct.
Option C:
Treating arts as mere exam coaching undermines their intrinsic and educational value. NEP emphasises arts for expression and understanding, not only for testing.
Option D:
Banning arts at higher grades goes against the idea that artistic engagement should continue across school years.
