About the SWAYAM Program
The Study Webs of Active Learning for Young Aspiring Minds (SWAYAM) initiative is a government program designed to improve access, equity, and quality in education. Its primary goal is to provide high-quality teaching and learning resources to all students, including those in underserved communities. SWAYAM works to bridge the digital divide, helping students who have not yet accessed digital education join the knowledge economy, as outlined in the official information bulletin.
Examination Guidelines and Scoring
Candidates appearing for the SWAYAM July 2025 examination should note key scoring rules. There will be no negative marking applied for any incorrect responses provided by candidates. Furthermore, questions left unanswered will not receive any marks. The NTA has also clarified procedures for flawed questions: if a question is found to be incorrect, or if it has multiple correct answers, all students who attempted the question and selected at least one of the correct responses will be awarded full marks for that question.
