Overview of BJP Education Ministers and Policy Changes Since 2014
Since 2014, India has had four education ministers under the BJP: Smriti Irani, Prakash Javadekar, Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank', and Dharmendra Pradhan, with only Pradhan completing a full five-year term. The Ministry of Human Resource Development was renamed the Ministry of Education in 2020 following the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
