The New Indian Express
|September 24, 2025

Pirmanayagam Avudaiyappan, a Tamil writer from Delhi, who filed the petition, sought the court to declare ultra vires the December 31, 2024 GO, which according to him allowed the relaxation to CBSE, ICSE, ICGSE and IB boards, defeats the legislative intent of making learning of Tamil compulsory for all students from classes 1 to 10.
