The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) issued detailed guidelines for implementing the three-language policy on Monday, clarifying that students currently in Class X will not be affected by the new framework.
The board said students currently studying in Classes VII, VIII and IX will also not be required to appear for a board examination in a third language when they move to Class X. Those who have already opted for two foreign languages will be allowed to continue with the same, but will have to study one additional native Indian language (Bhartiya Bhasha).
