  • In last year(2019) Andhra Pradesh chief minister Mr Jagan Mohan reddy introduce a bill regarding study throughout in English medium. he stated, “if you want to compete in today’s world, English is must, that’s by my government has taken the initiative, to ensure that our children study throughout in English medium .” Opposition parties are against this proposal, but Reddy has an answer for that “I want to ask those who are opposing me in which medium of instruction did their children study?”
  • Some people think that Hindi should be the national language because the majority speaks it. For the answer, this question Tamil leader Annadurai made a telling point. Hindi speakers say Hindi should be the national language because majority speak it then why the logic the crow must be the national bird of India rather than the peacock. As there is more crow than the peacock.
  • In 1981 chief minister of West Bengal Jyoti Basu decided that west Bengal government will learn English from class 6 only as a result it industry shifted to Kolkata. Because Kolkata didn’t have adequate English speaking software engineer.
