The Madhya Pradesh government will now be offering medical courses in Hindi. The syllabus is currently being prepared in Hindi. The state government has formed a high-level committee and conducted a meeting. The state education minister Vishwas Sarang said the government is working on getting medical education done in Hindi as well.
This comes after the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has allowed 20 of its engineering colleges to teach Btech courses in languages other than English. Content for the same is currently being prepared. It has also asked colleges to hold mandatory English communication classes for students studying in local languages. The implementation of the regional languages which also includes Marathi, Bengali, Tamil, and Telugu apart from Hindi is being done in a phased manner and other languages will follow, the council had said.
