Suggestion to teach vernacular in schools ill thought

Policy makers’ decision that vernacular languages be taught and that the language of instruction in schools should change to local vernacular through the publication of Sessional Paper 14 of 2012 was received with mixed reactions.  

Education and thus culture and traditions are passed through activities or instructions directed through language. Formal education follows a premise of instruction for delivery through all levels. Countries across the world choose a language through which they term as the official language for communication.
