Atal Bihari Vajpayee Vishwavidyalaya to offer MBBS in Hindi: Amit Shah

Gandhinagar : At the foundation stone laying ceremony of the new campus of Gujarat Technological University (GTU) in Lekawada of Gandhinagar on Tuesday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced that Atal Bihari Vajpayee Vishwavidyalaya in Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, will offer MBBS in Hindi. The minister said this with regard to the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 which aims to promote technical courses in the mother tongue of the student. Shah further said, “The NEP has encouraged mother language as when a student thinks in his mother tongue, he can understand and research better. Some people might find this strange but I want to reiterate that when students think, talk, and study in their mother tongue, they can research better, unlike rote learning. That is the reason from October 16, Atal Bihari Vajpayee Vishwavidyalaya will offer complete first semester of MBBS course in Hindi.”
