BANGALORE: In an effort to minimize rural-urban divide, the BJP-ruled
government in Karnataka on Tuesday said it would positively consider
the demand to open more English medium schools in the rural parts of
the state.

Considered to be one of the liberal moves by the government, primary
and secondary education minister Visveshvara Hegde Kageri said the
demand has been pouring from large section of population across the
state to open English medium schools in rural areas. "To face the
challenges of the present day world and make our rural students
competitive, English medium schools are necessary," the minister
maintained.
