HYDERABAD June 26: Telugu Bhashodyama Samakhya and Telugu Bhasha Chaitanya Samithi have jointly appealed to B. Subhashan Reddy, Chairman of the State Human Rights Commission, to protect the rights of children to learn in Telugu medium.
In a memorandum submitted to Justice Reddy here on Thursday, a delegation comprising the representatives of the two organisations said that the State had a responsibility to provide free and compulsory education to every child in the 6-14 age groups.
Article 350 A of the Constitution envisaged that the State or local authority had the responsibility to provide education to the children in their mother tongue.
The delegation consisted of G.S. Varadachari, C. Dharma Rao and K. Nageswara Rao.
It was universally accepted that mother tongue was the best and easiest tool of learning and the same had been endorsed by the UN convention.
