Seen few Apes in Tamil nadu who are protesting against this decision . Why is Ravana worshipped in few parts of tamil nadu ? ..why do they eat beef ? why did they form militant group called ltte ...Its funny how easily these apes get rattled .If anyone protest against this decision please send them to Sri lanka nd also dont waste time and energy on fisherman who wantedly cross the ocean ..
Science and Technology ,backbone in todays day to day life was all researched by English people.To undertstand and master it, we have to learn English.Thanks to English, we earned huge foreign exchange, other wise what would have been Petrol/Diesel prices in the absence of huge dollars.Compare volumes of Books studied, classes attended in Hours by Technocrats and Humanity boys. When all the society celebrates many festivals, and do chating, technocrats are writting exams.Even if you remove mathematical aptitude from CSAT and introduce full humanity subjects, technocrats will be way ahead. It is not subjects, it is their hard work and talent. Then Urban and poor divide. Where from all urban people came. Have they fallen from HAVEN.They have come from villages too.Now a days, students are demanding huge concessions in studies. They want to carry over failed subjects and get promoted to higher classes, even failed in not one year but two years. If not accepted, then agitate.Only thing that civil services aspirants from rural background should be be given extra chance to appear compared to technocrats.But standard of exam should not be lowered,

Why do we need IAS at all? All the people want to become IAS for the power it gives, the free perks at the cost of Tax Payer and much less the for the Pay Packet. If it is for (legal) Money the could make more than double the Salary in several MNCs, not in today's IT jobs but even 30 yrs ago. Speaking of need to learn English or the basic qualification for IAS (Bachelor's Degree) some people expressed that English is not necessary for an IAS Officer to perform his job successfully but it is his overall talent. YES. Even our Politicians are from that class. Then why do we need even Graduation as Basic qualification for IAS or IPS. Why not even non Matriculates be permitted to appear for any UPSC or State PSC Exams?

The cost of untaxed free perks an IAS Officer gets is almost Rs.10 laks per mnth. This mad craze for IAS and changing rules to benefit Hindi belt, will come to an end, if all the Non Hindi speaking States take decision, not to have any IAS Officers at all in their States & in fact Officials who come from the ranks, perform better after their decades of experience, in the same field, over & again. There is resentment in several Depts, to IAS being posted, only to sign all the work done by his subordinates with decades experience.

Although it may not be relevant here, I would like to mention that a major contribution to making English the most important global language came from Adolf Hitler: because of him, the English speaking countries, mainly the U.S., were flooded with scientists and engineers from Europe, not only from Germany. Before Hitler, German was possibly more important than English.
When the Soviet Union ruled over eastern Europe, Russian was a major scientific language. It still is, but less than before. Since the 1990s the U.S. has been getting lots of Russian scientists, making English even more important!
