Abstract:<\/strong> The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 marks a significant shift in India\u2019s educational framework by emphasizing the integration of the Indian Knowledge System (IKS) into formal education. Rooted in India\u2019s rich intellectual traditions, IKS encompasses diverse fields such as philosophy, science, mathematics, medicine, arts, and ethics, offering a holistic approach to learning. This paper aims to study the opportunities and challenges associated with integrating IKS into the contemporary education system under NEP-2020. The study adopts a descriptive and analytical approach based on secondary sources, including policy documents, academic literature, and government reports. The findings reveal that integrating IKS can promote experiential learning, cultural awareness, ethical values, and interdisciplinary thinking, thereby contributing to holistic student development. However, the implementation faces several challenges, such as lack of trained educators, curriculum restructuring, assessment alignment, and the risk of symbolic or superficial inclusion of traditional knowledge. The paper argues that addressing these challenges requires teacher training, scholarly validation of knowledge systems, and a balanced integration with modern pedagogical practices. Effective implementation of IKS under NEP-2020 has the potential to enrich Indian education by blending traditional wisdom with contemporary knowledge, fostering innovation, inclusivity, and global relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
