Delhi: ‘Urdu academy will work to provide IAS coaching to students’

The Delhi government is looking at creating infrastructure for coaching facilities for Urdu-medium students as well as providing material in Urdu, that can be translated from other languages.

“At the ceremony, I was talking to students and asked them what they wanted. These are students who have topped in the language at different universities and many of them told me they want coaching. People opt for Urdu, but unlike in English and Hindi, there are no coaching facilities in the market for them. We are looking at how the academy can help. Even when it comes to content, students find it difficult to get material. That will also be looked at,” Sisodia said.

At the event, Sisodia said the way English and Hindi are treated as a standard language of teaching and study, Urdu will also be treated at par.
Students from Jamia Millia Islamia, Jawaharlal Nehru University, District Institute of Education and Training and Maharishi Valmiki College of Education were felicitated.
