KEY POINTS
· The NEP provides for more higher educational institutions and programmes in higher education to use the mother tongue or local language as a medium of instruction, besides offering programmes bilingually.
· Effective 2021-22, the AICTE granted approval to 19 engineering colleges in 10 States for having engineering courses in six Indian languages.
· The Council has also developed an “AICTE Translation Automation AI Tool” that translates English online courses in 11 Indian languages.
· SWAYAM, an open online courses platform of the Central government, has been offering some popular courses in Indian languages too.
· In Tamil Nadu, for instance, the bid to impart engineering education through the Tamil medium has not created any impact despite the principal political players using language as a political tool.
· It would not be out of place to highlight issues about standards and the quality of teaching of Indian languages in schools.
· Be it Gujarati or Hindi or even Tamil, students have been found to fail in their public examinations in language papers.
· There is also the point of diminished employability outside the region of the language.
· If the Government is serious in taking forward its stated position of creating higher education access to certain sections, it should dispassionately study the advantages and the disadvantages.
