Parents and students in Hyderabad are expressing their dissatisfaction with the recent decision made by the Telangana government to introduce Telugu as a mandatory second language in all schools by the 2025-26 academic year. The move has sparked protests as parents demand the freedom to choose the language their children study. Critics argue that this mandate places an unnecessary academic load on students, especially those following the CBSE curriculum. They also highlight the challenges faced by non-native Telugu speakers and families who frequently relocate. The issue has ignited a debate on the importance of preserving regional languages versus the right to choose one’s language of study. The protests have gained momentum as concerned individuals advocate for a more flexible language policy that takes into account the diverse linguistic backgrounds of students in the state. As discussions continue, it remains to be seen how the authorities will address the grievances raised by parents and students while balancing the promotion of regional languages in educational settings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
