It is evident how crucial education is to a person's overall development. The knowledge of the economy and society is still in its infancy. In terms of social and economic elements, education has emerged as the most significant factor for individual and national growth. Given this context, it would be worthwhile to examine the New Education Policy 2020 for the benefits and impacts it has on the various stakeholders. Such analysis is important to fulfill the needs and objectives of NEP-2020. Despite having many universities and schools, Indian education still needs some improvements. Many Indian children still do not have access to education, and more importantly, the education system in India has not undergone significant reform in the last few decades, so changes must be made to keep up with the changing needs of society. The purpose of this study is to use the neutrosophic PESTEL analysis technique to mathematically identify and rank the major factors required to be identified for the successful implementation of NEP. Numerous factors that are grouped into six primary categories—political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental. These are presented by a thorough literature review of the subject. The present work employs neutrosophic PESTEL analysis, to identify the main obstacles to the implementation and execution of NEP-2020 in India. The study shows that social and economic factors, with 84% and 60% respectively play a significant role while political and technical factors are also important and come in second place since they each represent 25% and 34% of the barriers to the implementation of the NEP-2020. The last two factors are legal and environmental, contributing only 13% and 3%, respectively. The primary goal of the study is to identify and statistically rank the biggest obstacles to NEP-2020 implementation in India. In many aspects, this research will help government organizations and policymakers prioritize the main obstacles early in the implementation process as well as during execution, ensuring that the results are as anticipated and that the project is finished within the allotted time limit.
