Karnataka School Association Seeks Stay on CBSE's Kannada Third Language Directive
The Associated Management of Primary and Secondary Schools in Karnataka (KAMS) has opposed the CBSE's directive to make Kannada the mandatory third language in Karnataka schools. Citing the Karnataka Language Learning Act, 2015, which already mandates Kannada as the first or second language, KAMS argues the new policy conflicts with state law. The association has requested a temporary hold on the CBSE order, clarification on its application, and a transitional policy for current students, warning of legal action if no response is received within 15 days.
