Panaji, May 24 (PTI) Goa government will formally announce its stand tomorrow on the medium of instruction (MOI) for elementary education in the state amid speculations that the Congress meeting in Delhi on the issue has decided upon English.
"The consultations in Delhi are over. But the final decision has to be taken by the state government," Congress Working Committee (CWC) member and Goa desk in-charge Jagmeet Singh Brar told PTI from Delhi.
Goa is witnessing a fierce debate over the MOI issue with a section of academicians and parents demanding to retain Konkani-Marathi as MOI while another section wants English.
The Congress party had held discussions in Delhi yesterday over the issue with Union Human Resources Minister Kapil Sibal. Party sources had stated that the meeting had resolved that English be allowed as the MOI.
