Sir, I shall finish my speech after citing a few examples. In the Education Ministers’ conference which was held here, they unanimously passed the following:-
“The medium of instruction and examination in the junior basic stage must be the mother-tongue of the child, and where the mother-tongue is different from the regional or state languages, arrangements must be made for instruction in mother-tongue by appointing at least one teacher, provided there are not less than forth pupils speaking the language in the whole school or ten such pupils in a class.“
