This present theoretical paper tries to highlight, i.e., how education plays an important role in the process of social change through inculcating value within the youngsters of our higher education particularly in this COVID-19 unpredicted situation. It is very potential instrument, a powerful medium of bringing about changes in the society through more than 65% of the youngsters in the higher education of our country. Changes brought about by value-oriented education are permanent and transcendent in nature. This paper suggests that with the help of new communication media, technology, modern methodology, and latest instructional materials, education brings about changes in the society during this COVID-19 situation. This paper also highlights that the NEP (1986) characterizes higher education as a crucial factor for survival, providing the Indian people with an opportunity to reflect on the critical, social, economic, cultural, moral and spiritual issues facing humanity. This paper further argues that higher education in this COVID-19 also is the main instrument for development and it is the time to change the ways and come forward for value orientation through universities and colleges by the government. It has the important task of preparing leaders for different walks of life-social, intellectual, political, cultural, scientific, and technological.
