| Summary, etc | The recent controversy involving the teaching of German as a third language in the Central schools (Kendriya Vidyalayas) can be viewed as an opportunity to take a deeper and critical look at India’s language policy in the changing globalized world. The article raises the questions as to what should be the basis for language in education policy, who decides what languages to learn and not to learn? In a democracy should it be citizens’ decision or should the state intervene in the name of national integration and nation-building? It argues for adoption of a holistic approach based on democratic deliberations rather than impetuous decisions. – Reproduced |
