Akhil Bharatiya Pritinidhi Sabha (ABPS), which is Rashtriya Swayamsevak
Sangh's (RSS) highest policy formulating body, on Sunday made a strong case
for elementary education to be in mother language or in state languages
recognized in the Constitution. This is necessary for natural learning and
to enrich cultural moorings.

Further, ABPS  <http://www.business-standard.com/search?type=news&q=Abps>said
a person having elementary education in a foreign language, gets alienated
from his surroundings, traditions, culture and values of life. At the same
time one also loses his identity, remaining ignorant of ancient knowledge,
science and literature.

ABPS in its resolution passed unanimously at the concluding day of its
annual meeting at Nagpur calls upon the Union Government and State
Governments to review their present language policies and ensure effective
system to impart education in mother language or in constitutionally
recognized state languages and simultaneously take initiative for use of
Bharatiya languages in education, administration and delivery of justice.

To substantiate its argument, ABPS said eminent thinkers like Mahamana
Madanmohan Malaviya, Mahatma Gandhi, Ravindranath Thakur, Sri Maa, Dr
Bhimrao Ambedkar, Dr Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan and scientists like
Chandrashekhar Venkat Raman, Prafulla Chandra Ray, Jagdish Chandra Basu and
several prominent educationists and psychologists have opined that it would
be both, natural and scientific to impart education in mother language.
This apart, various commissions constituted from time to time such as
Radhakrishnan Commission, Kothari Commission have also recommended for
imparting education in mother language. Taking note of the significance of
mother language, the United Nations also decided to observe February 21st
as Mother Language Day for whole of the world.

Further, ABPS calls upon the countrymen, including swayamsevaks to play an
effective role to establish the dignity of the mother language in
education, day-to-day working and public affairs to achieve all-round
development, national integrity and pride. ''In this regard, family has an
important role. Parents should have a firm resolve to impart elementary
education to their children in their own language,'' ABPS said in its
resolution.

*ABPS appeals to Centre & state governments to introduce Yoga in
curriculum *

Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha (ABPS) in its resolution passed at the
concluding day of the three day annual meeting at Nagpur urged the union
and state governments to introduce Yoga as a part of curriculum in
education, supporting research in Yoga and make all possible efforts for
promoting Yoga in social life. It also appeals to all the countrymen
including swayamsevaks, people of Bharatiya origin and Yoga followers to
endeavour earnestly for spreading Yoga to make the globe happy, healthy and
sustainable. The observance of Yoga Day and adopting Yoga based integral
living will lead the world to a genuine environment of universal oneness
and harmony.

ABPS referred to the proclamation by the 69th General Assembly of United
Nations to observe June 21st of every year as the International Yoga Day.
This was done after the proposal was moved by Prime Minister Narendra Modi
<http://www.business-standard.com/search?type=news&q=Narendra+Modi>in his
speech last year.

Further, ABPS said that Yoga is Bharat’s civilisational contribution to the
world and derived from the root ‘Yuj’ – meaning union and samadhi. ''Yoga
is not limited to physical exercise but is essentially a holistic way of
life leading to the union of body mind, intellect and soul as envisaged by
sages like Maharshi Patanjali,'' ABPS added.
