Abstract: The introduction of online and e-learning methods in the post-COVID 19 education system has brought about a renaissance in education. NEP 2020 has brought a new dimension to the education infrastructure through the inclusion of digital technology in the Indian education system. This change has impacted students in two ways. First, on the learning process of students. Second, on the psychological and emotional health of students. The topic of this review article is that e-learning, while making students flexible, self-reliant and skilled, also exposes them to problems such as social isolation, loneliness, anxiety and stress. Whereas in the traditional education system, direct emotional interaction with classmates in the organized environment of the classroom plays an important role, in e –learning, the lack of human connection and various technical problems (Such as the digital divide, internet connection problems) lead to frustration and annoyance among students and completely reduce their interest in learning. To address all these challenges, NEP 2020 has laid emphasis on development of digital infrastructure, teacher training, inclusive education and psychological-emotional health of a child. It may be possible to create a positive environment and maintain the emotional well-being of students through various interactive classes, counseling and compassionate teaching. Therefore, it goes without saying that the successful implementation of NEP 2020 requires a balanced combination of good use of technology and humanity.
