The Karnataka Governor, Thawarchand Gehlot has called for a comprehensive evaluation over the state government’s decision to award grades without marks for the third language in the Karnataka SSLC exam. Secretary to Governor R Prabhu Shankar forwarded a representation submitted by the Association for Preservation of Local Languages to the state Chief Secretary Shalini Rajneesh.

The Association raised apprehensions about the policy’s implications for students, teachers and the broader education system.

 What is the Association for Preservation of Local Languages Concern?

The representation submitted by the Association underlines the importance of the third language in promoting linguistic diversity, awareness and intellectual development among students.
