English's Role in Indian Education: Privilege, Inequality, and Access

In India, knowing English can be a big advantage because it's used in many jobs and schools.

However, it's often those from wealthy backgrounds who are already good at English.

Some people think that learning in your own language first is best.

The government is trying to help by encouraging multiple languages in schools, including English and Hindi.

Schools are also becoming more diverse, but students sometimes stick to their own groups, which may affect how well they learn.

It's important to make sure all students have a fair chance to learn and succeed.
