the new education policy has been made up to serve the purpose which our fellow friends talk about. thats the solution to the problem listed. 
Abolishment of exams can never be a solution at all.. 
a common ground for evaluation and assessment needs to be there .

the new education policy is testimony to the fact that major problems with the educational system are being addressed. the addition of other activities in the curriculum is well appreciated, but there are still so many things that have to be focused upon. 1) exams cannot evaluate the entire progress. 2) most students end up cramming stuff (which might have been the need two centuries ago when the concept was introduced but isn't required today seeing the technological growth.) 3) marks are considered to be the prime requirement for being successful in most cases 4) and most importantly, sports activities, etc. have always been in the curriculum, but they lose their importance because students aren't tested on them. hence exams just induce unnecessary pressure which can simply be overcome by progressive evaluation throughout the year.

by agreeing to implement the new education policy, you are agreeing to partially abolish exams. Secondly, just because a policy is better solution than what we have right now, doesn't mean it is the best solution available.

The new policy gives choice to the student to choose the subjects and they would be further evaluated by examinations. Also for overall development focused would be given to improve the skillset too.

The NEP has indeed understood the problem of stress associated with the exams and made the board exams easier. But this is just a scratch on the surface. Dropping the standard of exam will make it easier for some students or reduce some stress. But that's not the only problem. The bigger fish is the faulty numerical evaluation system that is not a true depiction of one's understanding of a matter.
