MK Stalin, the chief minister of Tamil Nadu, has requested that all exams administered by the federal government be given in regional tongues and that all students should have an equal chance to succeed.
The Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) tests will henceforth be given in 13 regional languages in addition to Hindi and English, as the Centre decided in April of this year. In a video series called “Ungalin Oruvan” on Monday, Stalin stated, “We have to raise our voice demanding to conduct all Central Government exams in all regional languages.” The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister was responding to concerns about different political happenings in the state.
“It ought to occur shortly. It has been a long-standing demand of the DMK in the State Legislature, Parliament, and public forums. This allows young people from many other Indian States, in addition to Tamil Nadu, to take examinations in their native tongues. Opportunities shouldn't be limited by a person's proficiency in Hindi and English, he said.
The Chief Minister said that the Center's decision to hold the CAPF examinations in 13 regional languages was a response to their request and that all central tests should be held in the candidates' own languages.
Indian states make form a union. Consequently, all youth should have access to equal opportunities. For the first time, we received a favourable response to our request. Let's speak out for the use of all regional languages in Central Government examinations. This will be won, he assured.
