Supreme Court Orders Tamil Nadu to Identify Land for Navodaya Schools Amid Language Policy Dispute
The Supreme Court has directed Tamil Nadu to identify land within three months for establishing Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas (JNVs), urging dialogue between the state and Centre over language policy differences. Tamil Nadu opposes the three-language model, favoring its two-language policy of Tamil and English, and rejects Hindi imposition. Leader of Opposition Udhayanidhi Stalin and state officials emphasize Tamil Nadu's educational achievements without Hindi and seek to uphold state autonomy. The court stressed cooperative federalism and that Hindi instruction would not lower local education standards.
