Mrs Chandra Madhavi said, a few decades ago there was a slight shift in the of education trend, the importance for languages was reduced and Science, streams like Engineering and medicine gained more prominence and now I see the shift again with languages and English gaining their prime place, just not for pursuing further education abroad, also to excel in jobs in India.

But how you carry yourself in the society, in the community and the respect you gain relies on your language and communication skills.
