BHUBANESHWAR: Speaking at an event held on Sunday at the Eastern Regional Languages Centre in Bhubaneswar, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan stated that the National Education Policy has recommended that children receive their primary education in their local dialects through class 8, or at the least till class 5.
“If the children learn and write in the same language that it hears and speaks in its early days, then the child’s ability to use logic, express thought and do analysis will develop significantly,” said Pradhan.
The minister said that Odia children can become great men like Madhusudan Das, Sarala Das and Pathani Samanta if they receive education in their own native dialect.
He urged the state government to implement the PM Schools for Rising India (PM SHRI) scheme in Odisha.
Pradhan informed that he has also proposed the Central Institute of Indian Languages to organise special programmes like, debate and essay competitions at school and college level in December to make Odia language popular and acceptable among the new generation.
He said the country has been celebrating Bharatiya Bhasha Diwas on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Tamil poet and freedom fighter, Subramania Bharati. The celebration started from September 28 and will continue till December 11.
Pradhan said that the dialect spoken in different areas such as Ganjam, Mayurbhanj, Sambalpur and Dhenkanal are very sweet.
