alleryArticle 350A promises minority children mother-tongue teaching at the:
APrimary stage
BSecondary stage
CCollege stage
DPre-school stage
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Primary stage
1. NCF 2005 recalls Article 350A of the Constitution.
2. It asks every State and local authority to provide adequate facilities for instruction in the mother tongue.
3. This is at the primary stage of education.
4. The children concerned belong to linguistic minority groups.
**Why not the others:** Secondary, college and pre-school stages are not what Article 350A names.
