Days after KTR requested the centre to conduct CRPF national recruitment examination in regional languages including Telugu, the Centre has conceded to the demand 

The Centre announced that it would conduct all the recruitment tests for CAPF in 13 regional languages

 Amit Shah has announced on Saturday that the CAPF exams will be conducted in 13 regional languages also henceforth

Following this announcement, K T Rama Rao has thanked Amit Shah in a tweet. This would surely help the students in Telugu states, Rama Rao added

Controversy arose last week after the Centre announced that it would be conducting the recruitment tests for CAPF in Hindi and English only

There was a furore all over the country as people who studied in regional languages were at a disadvantage when compared to those who studied in Hindi and English mediums

The move was also denounced by Tamil Nadu Chief Minsiter MK Stalin

Besides Hindi and English, the question paper will now be available in Assamese, Bengali,Gujarati, Marathi, Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Odia, Urdu, Punjabi, Manipuri and Konkani
