Sri Lanka’s Ministry of National Languages and Ethnic Integration announced that it planned to introduce a hotline for resolving the language issues affecting the public service.
The minister of the Ministry National Languages and Ethnic Integration, Vasudeva Naanyakkara, assured that the Ministry was fully committed to implement the Official Languages Policy, which alleges to promote language rights and equality, throughout the country.
The Ministry’s plans form a stark contrast with recent developments in the Tamil north, which saw the opening of temples with plaques inscribed in only English and Sinhala.
