CAP 45.14

2. Right to receive education through the mother tongue.

Here also the Bardoli resolution is explicit and wanted that primary and secondary education should be given in the mother tongue. In South Orissa, there are some villages which are preponderantly Andhra but have no Telugu primary schools. Similarly in many districts of Tamil Nad, the Telugu minority is not provided facilities to learn Telugu. In secondary schools while the medium of instruction for Oriyas is their own mother tongue, the same facility is denied to the Telugu minority even where there are sufficiently large numbers and the unwanted English is being inflicted on them.
