Union Minister of State for HRD, Satya Pal Singh, said that language is important for any society and country and the New Education Policy will give the Hindi language its rightful place in the education.
“When the education policy came in 1835, Lord Macualay had said that India’s people will remain Indians in their looks and blood but their thinking will be British. Whenever we escalate talks about working for the mother tongue, things don’t move forward,” he said. He was present at an award function of the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE).
“Who were the leaders in the country who did not let Hindi get its importance? Soon, a new education policy is coming. It is very unfortunate that people think low of themselves if they don’t know English. Like you can’t change your mother, you can’t change your language also,” he said.
The event was held to honor the authors of the best books published in Hindi on technical education.
