Yesterday, Govt of Karnataka took a decision to make English compulsory in Kannada schools. This is a step forward.
Few days ago, It gave a blow to education by de-recognizing 2000 private schools. This is 2 steps backward.
Agreed, that these schools violated law by teaching English medium instead of Kannada medium.
Bringing a chauvinistic attitude on a language solves nothing. In Vidhana Soudha, Every honorable minister flaunts English.
I being Kannadiga am proud of my language. Leading by example helps. First make kannada compulsory in Vidhana Soudha. That sends some clear messages to public.
