The High Court said that once a representation was made in English, it was the Centre’s duty to ensure that all communication was in the same language.
Citing the Official Languages Act, the Madras High Court has directed the Centre to give reply in English if the representation is made in the said language, saying it was the "duty" of the union government to do so.
