English is universal language and it helps to meidate between international bodies knowing that many policy challages are being increasingly solved today with the aid of international bodies such as UN, UNICEF etc). In this light, english may serve as the key to decide future language policy. Other arguments in support of above are:
1. Many educational institutions are npw primarily imparting language in english such as ICSE schools,
2. it increases the better connectivity in job market, many job offering companies want the candidates to communicate in english for serving their clients, offshore locations, call centres and so on.
However, according to the directive principles of state policy,
1. The state should strive to provide an apt environment to give educational instructions in mother tongue upto the age of 6 (this is because best mental development is possible, when mother tongue is used) and anglish not being the mother tongue in india, there is conflict in what state aspire to achieve and what on the job requirements are
2. Right to education only focuses on compulsory primary education between 6-14 years irrespective of language. So this fundamental right does not uphold english as the key to decide India;s future language policy.
So, right balance between Fundamnetal rights, directives to the state and market requirements have to be laid so that we come up with comprehensive future language policy
