APAAR, which stands for Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry, is a significant digital initiative launched as part of India's National Education Policy 2020. It aims to create a unified and unique identification system for all students across the country, aligning with the 'One Nation, One Student ID' vision. This registry is designed to consolidate a student's academic achievements, including credits earned through systems like the Academic Bank of Credits (ABC), and other academic records. The goal is to streamline the process of academic recognition and transfer, making it easier for students to pursue higher education and career opportunities without administrative hurdles related to verifying their academic history.
