India's journey in education, particularly its examination system, has been a compelling narrative of transformation, challenges, and continuous evolution. Since gaining independence in 1947, India has navigated a complex path to develop an education system that meets the needs of a diverse and rapidly growing population. The examination system, as a critical component of this journey, reflects the broader socio-economic, cultural, and political changes that the country has undergone over the past seven decades. This book, "India's Education Examination System: From Independence to the Present," aims to provide a comprehensive examination of the evolution, reforms, and current practices within India's examination system. By delving into the historical context, key reforms, and future directions, this book offers an in-depth understanding of how India has shaped its education policies to address the aspirations and challenges of its people. The examination system, often criticized for its rigidity and high-stakes nature, has seen numerous reforms aimed at making it more inclusive, equitable, and reflective of students' diverse talents and capabilities. From the early post-independence commissions, such as the University Education Commission and the Secondary Education Commission, to contemporary policies like the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, each chapter of this book explores the milestones and turning points that have defined India's examination landscape.

There was a massive turn of events in education in the late 1990s particularly with the emergence of right wing BJP into power. We decided to take a fresh look at the dynamics of development of Indian education based on our experience in Indian Education: Development since Independence. Several major institutions like CABE ACC etc. were adapted to suit political agenda of cultural nationalism during the NDA regime. There was no qualitative shift during the succeeding UPA regime though it resurrected CABE. Biggest casualties were the national institutions with unmistakable dwarfing of the people in the leadership positions. School curriculum shuttled between the 'left' and 'right' leaving students' interest in the back burner. Students' anti-reservation agitation met with water cannons 'lathis' and gunshots when Delhi traders' agitation met with political sympathy across party lines. Indeed a dangerous trend of politicalization of education was set in motion. This dynamics needs to be captured. This book comprises 15 chapters; a chapter each on to elementary education adult education education of scheduled castes and scheduled tribes secondary education higher education technical education women's education inclusive education educational technology teacher education media in education open and distance education and educational financing. These 13 chapters have been preceded by a chapter each on an overview of development of education since independence and evolution of educational policies in India. Each chapter coming from distinguished specialist in the respective field adds additional value to the book.
