Indian Knowledge System with its comprehensive tradition proposes values, skills and love for homeland and has been sporadic in Indian Educational Curriculum, and through National Education Policy it posits sensible pride for being a citizen of India encapsulating Self-esteem and Tolerance with vivacious frame. Introduction of Indian Knowledge System in curricula silently erodes the tradition inflicted by the foreign invasions, and also it embraces religious and social diversity in the true sense of the term. It will be the torch bearer for India to transmute it into the Viksit Bharat Rashtra by 2047, while we celebrate the centenary of Indian Independence with enormous erosion is colonial mindset in the non-colonial period and the colonial period as well. India as nation will reach out to other nations of the world by being a benchmark of values, tradition and beauteously diverse culture.
