About:

Nai Talim is a concept of basic education system by Mahatma Gandhi.
Basic Education is a principle which states that knowledge and work are not separate. Mahatma Gandhi promoted an educational curriculum with the same name based on this pedagogical principle.
The three pillars of Gandhi's pedagogy were its focus on the lifelong character of education, its social character and its form as a holistic process.
For Gandhi, education is 'the moral development of the person', a process that is by definition 'lifelong'.
