Knowledge in Mother Tongue

• Technical knowledge is not yet fully available in Indian languages. Consequently, over 90 percent of the persons engaged in technical activities are deprived of the advantage of learning systematically about the subjects they deal with every day. As a result, their understanding of their own jobs and functions is inadequate. Therefore, achieving the expected levels of excellence in work becomes almost impossible. A step towards removing this lacuna is to produce appropriate technical information in the language of the masses: in Marathi for Maharashtra, in Gujarati for Gujarat, in Tamil for Tamil Nadu, etc.
