HDK wants to make young people less competative. In KN many foreign students studying. Our people should compete with them. But this will make people lazy
Aspirants minimum eligibility for most of the posts is degree or master degree. So they are capable of writing in English
Kumaraswamy wanted to make people fools.
For understanding questions, can give questions in own language but should not allow to write in local languages.
Rubbish. By giving allowing to write in own language makes people more lazy and less competative..
