From the year 2015-16 academic year all the students in Tamil Nadu, who will be sitting for their Class X public examination in 2015-16 academic year, have to study Tamil compulsorily as their first language.
In June 2006, the State government has enacted Tamil Nadu Tamil Learning Act. As per the act, Tamil was made a compulsory language for Class I for all schools in the State. Though a group of schools moved the Supreme Court challenging the law and praying for the scrapping of the government decision, the petition was dismissed by the apex court.
This was discussed at the School Education department review meeting held in Chennai on Tuesday, headed by Minister KC Veeramani and attended by all higher officials and CEOs of all districts. This was to ensure that schools were informed about this developments and awareness was created among students, said another official.
