TN CM Stalin urges regional language use in all central government exams after CAPF test

MK Stalin, the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, demanded that all central government examinations be conducted in regional languages and that students from all parts in the country be given equal opportunity.
The Chief Minister also praised the Center’s April decision to hold Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) exams in 13 regional languages in addition to Hindi and English. “We must raise our voices and demand that all Central Government exams be conducted in all regional languages,” Stalin stated in a video series titled “Ungalin Oruvan,” in which the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister answered questions about major political developments in the state.
“It should happen soon. It is a long pending demand of DMK in Parliament, State Legislative and people forum. With this not just the youth of Tamil Nadu but the youth of many other Indian States can write the exams in their respective languages. Opportunities should not be reduced to one’s fluency in Hindi and English alone,” he added.
The Chief Minister said that their demand bore a positive result when the Centre decided to conduct the CAPF exams in 13 regional languages and said that there is a need to conduct all central exams in the respective languages of the aspirants.
“India is a Union of States. So youth from all States should get equal opportunities. As a first, we have had a positive result to our demand. Let’s raise our voices to conduct all Central Government exams in all regional languages. We will win this”, he said.
