The Supreme Court has sought responses from the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) in a Public Interest Litigation challenging the decision of the CBSE to make a third language compulsory for Class 9 students from 2026-27 academic year.
The court said the matter would be heard next on either July 15 or July 16. Petitioners had requested an immediate stay on the implementation of the policy, claiming that the rule is scheduled to come into effect from July 1. However, the Supreme Court declined to stay the policy at this stage.

The petitioners argued that the sudden implementation of the rule could create difficulties for students. They also raised concerns over the shortage of teachers in schools to effectively implement the language policy.
The matter is now expected to be taken up again during the next hearing in July.
