Bodo language in Assembly

By Staff Reporter

GUWAHATI, Aug 17 - BPF MLA Pramila Rani Brahma has demanded a provision for the use of the Bodo language in the Legislative Assembly and for the appointment of interpreters to facilitate this exercise.

�No Bodo language translators have been appointed, despite several requests. In Parliament, there is a facility, wherein MPs can speak in any of the official languages and interpreters are used for the benefit of others who do not understand that particular language. We also have a right to speak in our mother tongue,� she said.

Congress MLA Himanta Biswa Sarma supported her demand and urged Deputy Speaker Bhimananda Tanti to ensure that interpreters are appointed before the next session of the Assembly.
