Supreme Court Advises CBSE to Defer Three-Language Policy for Class 6 to 2027
The Supreme Court has asked the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to consider deferring the implementation of its three-language policy for Class 6 students to the 2027 academic year. The policy mandates studying three languages, including two native Indian languages. The court suggested allowing current Class 6 students to opt in this year if they wish. CBSE, represented by Additional Solicitor General Aishwarya Bhati, agreed to review the suggestion and provide a fresh note. The court emphasized this was to ease student adjustment, not a judgment on the policy's validity.
