New Delhi: The Union government yesterday said that an internal committee of the Home Ministry was looking into inclusion of Tulu and Kodava languages in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution as several law-makers have demanded expansion of the Schedule.
Responding to a private member’s bill moved by B.K. Hariprasad (Congress), Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiran Rijiju told the Rajya Sabha that the official panel has been tasked to come out with the objective criterion on inclusion of more languages in the Schedule.
