Guwahati: The decision to conduct JEE (Main) in Assamese, among other regional languages is expected to boost the vernacular medium schools.
This might slow down the pace at which English medium schools have been increasing in Assam, particularly in towns and suburban areas, educationists said.
After the introduction of Assamese language in JEE (Main) 2021, school heads and academics said the thrust on mother tongue during schooling has been affirmed in an era of high competition at the 10+2 level.
