Bihar: IIIT-Bhagalpur to Prepare Hindi Course Material

BHAGALPUR: The IIIT-Bhagalpur will prepare course materials in Hindi for the engineering students from rural backgrounds with less exposure to the English language. The move was launched following an investigation of some of the students facing difficulties in technical institutions across the country and the subsequent recommendation of the Cabinet of the Prime Minister (PMO) and Ministry of Education, Government of India to the course in Hindi for at least one year in the higher education institutions.
dr. Prof. dr. Arvind Choubey, director of IIIT-Bhagalpur, said the faculty members and resources were preparing the course curriculum in Hindi. “It is a challenging task in view of the translation of technical words and explanations in Hindi. We are also trying to prepare online classes in Hindi to help students,” he said.
Here it can be mentioned that the Delhi Hindi Sahitya Sammelan, with reference to Article 343 of the constitution, had advocated for the introduction of study in Hindi language for at least one year in the higher education institutions in the country and filed a petition with the Prime Minister in March 2021 in this regard.
The PMO referred the matter to the Ministry of Education and after consultation with the experts and academics, a directive was issued on 21 September 2021 regarding the immediate introduction of Hindi courses in higher education institutions.
dr. Prof. dr. For reference, Choubey said that IIIT-Bhagalpur may be the first at the country level to take the steps to introduce Hindi to the technical institutions.
