Students in Delhi govt schools to study French

NEW DELHI: In a push towards enabling Delhi government school children learn global languages, Delhi Board of School Education on Monday signed an MoU with Institut Francais en Inde (IFI – the French institute in India).

Stating that learning a global language is not just the acquisition of a skill but also an association with the culture of a particular country, deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia said, “As a part of the Kejriwal government’s programme to introduce prominent global languages in government schools, students will now have the option to learn French too. Introduction of global languages like French will unlock new career options for our students in various fields and will make them professionally sound.”
