Supreme Court Defers CBSE Three-Language Policy Decision, Suggests Class 6 Exemption
The Supreme Court has again deferred its decision on the CBSE's revised three-language policy, suggesting a one-time exemption for students currently in Class 6 to avoid mandatory third-language board exams in Class 10. The court questioned the classification of English as a foreign language under the policy. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta committed to discussing these concerns with officials. The next hearing is scheduled for September 17.
