Why children should be taught in their regional languages?

Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated an education conclave held by UGC where he spoke on the new National Education Policy 2020.PM said that it was a step towards making more globalised citizens out of our children. But while we need to create global citizens, they should also be connected to their roots, he said. And this is why the NEP 2020 states that children should be taught in their regional languages so that their base can become even stronger in future.
