Supreme Court Eases Three-Language Policy for Class 6 Students

The Supreme Court has extended relief to Class 6 students under the CBSE three-language policy, ruling that their Class 10 examination will be internal assessment, not a Board exam, matching the relief for Classes 7-9. The Court has repeatedly questioned the policy's timing and impact, suggesting a 2027 start. The Hindu argues a two-language policy—English and mother tongue—would be best for India.
