“Primary education should be in Marathi” says Maharashtra Governor

“Primary education should be in Marathi” said the Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari on Saturday.

Speaking at an event on the occasion of Marathi Language Day, Koshyari said Maharashtra should pledge to provide primary education in Marathi to children.

`Marathi Bhasha Din’ is celebrated every year on February 27, the birth anniversary of poet and Jnanpith awardee late V V Shirwadkar. While English should be mastered, one should take pride in one’s mother tongue, the governor said. Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray said his government was working to conserve and develop Marathi.
