Substituting Punjabi with Sanskrit as 2nd language in HP schools, denial of rights: AAP

Chandigarh, Feb 16 (UNI) The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has expressed its displeasure over substituting Punjabi as second language with Sanskrit language in the state-run school there, saying it would deny the Punjabi-speaking people their legitimate rights, a statement said on Saturday.
Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Punjab Vidhan Sabha, Harpal Singh Cheema has written to the Chief Minister of Punjab Captain Amarinder Singh urging him to broach the issue with his Himachal Pradesh counterpart to roll back and re-introduce Punjabi as second language instead of Sanskrit language.
Mr Cheema said that he has yet to hear from him in this regard.
