Most of us have been sharing the Draft copy of National Education Policy 2019. Today on 14th June 2019, The Hindu news paper has published an article of an interview with two prominent educationists of India- Rohit Dhankar and Krishna Kumar. The original interview has focused on these personalities' thoughts on this Draft policy document. The CLF has curated snippets of this very productive interview. Our readers could benefit from it. At the end we have shared the link of The Hindu newspaper article and also National Education Policy 2019 Draft soft copy link.

Many parts of the body can be used as verbs in either a physical or a metaphorical sense. You can *head* a company, but if things go wrong you'll have to *shoulder* the blame, or *face* your investors. A good leader will *back* his employees, but if you don't *toe* the line the management can *skin* you. Did you *muscle* your way into that job? You might *eye* someone suspiciously, or wait for the police to *finger* a suspect. But if you need to get out of town, you can *thumb* a ride or you can ride with me if you can *stomach* the thought. Use strong *arm* tactic if you want to *elbow* out someone. I don't always sing along with the radio, but I sometimes do *mouth* the words. That's Amazing English! (To all English-Language Lovers) Source: received through WhatsApp message
