PARAKH will be an independent organization affiliated to the Ministry of Education which will conduct large scale assessment in three key areas – National Achievement Survey, School Based Assessment and thirdly Capacity Building. Sevak said that our first step is to develop some standard and standardized guidelines for evaluation.
