Abstract

The new education policy recognises the importance of Mathematics for holistic learning to build a competitive workforce for the 21st century and hence emphasises its integration into the curriculum. Mathematics is a fundamental academic discipline which plays a vital role in shaping the thinking and problem-solving skills of students. Furthermore, the new education policy aims to empower students to tackle real-world challenges and contribute meaningfully to society.

Mathematics is essential for enhancing cognitive development and nurturing logical reasoning among students, which is imperative for digital literacy and skill development. In this paper, we have shown the different impacts of mathematics on the new education policy.
