Chandigarh, February 26, 2025: Senior SAD leader Sukhbir Singh Badal has condemned CBSE's decision to drop the Punjabi language as a regional language in board exams.
"Strongly condemn CBSE's decision to drop Punjabi from regional languages in the 2025-26 curriculum. Punjabi is our mother tongue, spoken and read across various states and many countries worldwide. This attack on our mother tongue will not be tolerated, and Shiromani Akali Dal will strongly oppose this move. We demand its immediate restoration and urge all Punjabis to join hands in this fight. Let me remind you Bhagwant Mann, your silence on this blatant attack is being seen as complicity. Take a cue from the Telangana Government, which has made Telugu mandatory in all schools, including CBSE-affiliated ones. When will you stand up for Punjab's rights, Mr. Puppet CM ?" stated Sukhbir Badal on X.
