ABVP seeks removal of Urdu language in Naib Tehsildar recruitment

The protest, led by ABVP members and Naib Tehsildar aspirants, was organized under the banner of the “Bhasha Bachao Yatra” (Save Language Movement), aimed at ensuring equal opportunities for all candidates regardless of their linguistic background.

ABVP contends that making Urdu compulsory for Naib Tehsildar recruitment is discriminatory and violates the Jammu and Kashmir Official Languages Act, 2020, which recognizes Dogri, Hindi, Kashmiri, Urdu, and English as official languages.
