<p class="">The former Minister for Primary Education Vishweshwar 
Hegde Kageri on Tuesday demanded that the State government come out with
 a legislation on language policy. Accusing the government of not being 
serious about the issue, Mr. Kageri said the government should clarify 
its stand. “The government has received thousands of applications to 
open English-medium schools. If the department does not allow the 
schools to open, then it is contempt of court. It should take a decision
 on this at the earliest,” he said.</p><p class="">Mr. Kageri, who 
also criticised the State government for forming a new committee to 
review textbooks for classes 1 to class 10 from the coming academic 
year, demanded that the committee be annulled.</p><p class=""><a href="http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/bangalore/kageri-seeks-legislation-on-language-policy/article6761953.ece">http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/bangalore/kageri-seeks-legislation-on-language-policy/article6761953.ece</a><br></p><br clear="all"><br>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature">**************************************<br>N.b.: Listing on the lgpolicy-list is merely intended as a service to its members<br>and implies neither approval, confirmation nor agreement by the owner or sponsor of the list as to the veracity of a message's contents. Members who disagree with a message are encouraged to post a rebuttal, and to write directly to the original sender of any offensive message.  A copy of this may be forwarded to this list as well.  (H. Schiffman, Moderator)<br><br>For more information about the lgpolicy-list, go to <a href="https://groups.sas.upenn.edu/mailman/">https://groups.sas.upenn.edu/mailman/</a><br>listinfo/lgpolicy-list<br>*******************************************</div>
