Author(s):

Abstract:

In 2014, with the formation of the National Democratic Alliance, which we know as the NDA, significant changes were seen, giving India a new resolve Atmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India). After this, tremendous momentum was observed in the promotion of the Indian education system, which took ancient texts to new heights. Through ancient water management systems, it was learned how climate change occurs continuously, and through yoga practices, the world was told how challenges like mental health can be addressed. By 2025, more than ₹5,000 crore has been allocated for various ministries, indicating a strong strategic direction.
This qualitative study, based on scholars’ documents, their databases, government reports, and policy documents as secondary sources, evaluates objectives, achievements, and obstacles. It concludes that awareness of the Indian Knowledge System across the country has increased by up to 60%. Despite this, many issues like colonial legacy, standardization, etc., obstruct full implementation. Recommendations include collaboration between various ministries, increasing access to rural areas, and translating classical texts powered by artificial intelligence. Ultimately, this indicates a renaissance that establishes the Indian Knowledge System not merely as a relic but as a dynamic tool for cultural sovereignty and global innovation. By bridging Indian culture, tradition, and modernity, the Indian Knowledge System inspires a decolonized knowledge paradigm, ensuring equitable access for future generations. This research paper reflects the efforts made by the central government and provides opportunities for state-level comparisons in future research.
