Talking to reporters in Dehu, Fadnavis said that English is widely promoted, but Indian languages are often ignored and said that disputes over languages are unnecessary.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said on Wednesday that the imperative of learning Hindi for students in the state has been removed in a new order, and now any Indian language can be chosen as the third language. Talking to reporters in Dehu, Fadnavis said that English is widely promoted, but Indian languages are often ignored and said that disputes over languages are unnecessary.
The state government issued an order on Tuesday stating that in Marathi and English medium schools, students from class 1 to 5 will generally be taught Hindi as the third language. The amended government proposal (GR) states that Hindi will usually be the third language rather than being compulsory, and if a school expresses the desire to study any other Indian language other than Hindi per class, then they have been given the option to get out of it.
Some Marathi supporting organizations accused the government of re -implementing the policy from the “back door” after initially retreating, and the opposition Congress accused the government of “stabbing” in the chest of Marathi people. MNS chief Raj Thackeray asked what the students needed to “impose” Hindi and appealed to the state schools to fail the government’s intentional “hidden agenda” to create linguistic divisions “. He insisted that Hindi is the state language of some northern states and it is wrong to impose it on Maharashtra, where Marathi is widely used.
