The Jagan Mohan Reddy administration of Andhra Pradesh is powering through opposition criticism to switch all government schools from Telugu to English medium.
There are 44,512 government schools in Andhra Pradesh, where Telugu is the primary language.
The blueprint for the government’s plan includes practical lessons — as opposed to purely text-based instruction — in English and bridge courses that ease the transition from Telugu.
Telugu, meanwhile, will be made a compulsory subject in every class.
The government has set aside a budget of Rs 12,000 crore for the first three years of the transformation, which kicks in for Classes 1 to 6 from academic year 2020-21.
