Maharashtra makes Marathi mandatory in all schools, derecognition for violators
Maharashtra has made teaching Marathi mandatory for all schools, from Class 1 to 10, across all boards. Education Minister Dada Bhuse announced that non-compliant schools face a ₹1 lakh fine and potential derecognition. This move aims to ensure Marathi is taught as a core subject from the 2025-26 academic year, with examinations to be conducted for every class. The government is committed to enforcing the law.
