The Gujarat government has announced that it will move a bill in the upcoming Assembly session making teaching the Gujarati language a compulsory subject in schools across the state.
The move will make teaching the Gujarati language from classes 1 to 8 in all schools functioning in the state mandatory.
The Gujarat High Court urged the Gujarat government to make a law for making the Gujarati language compulsory in the local schools.
The Gujarati language will be taught at all schools of all mediums and boards, including those affiliated with central boards.
