Pradhan insists TN must implement NEP for release of SSA funds

Even as the Tamil Nadu government has moved the Supreme Court to secure the release of ₹2,152 crore under the Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) programme, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Sunday said the amount due to the State would be released only after it implements the National Education Policy (NEP).
