Pinarayi Vijayan wants SC judgments in Malayalam too

Thiruvananthapuram: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Friday wrote to Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi and Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad requesting that all Supreme Court judgments should be made available in Malayalam also.

In his letter, Pinarayi said it is unfortunate that Malayalam was excluded from the list of regional languages that all apex court judgments will be translated.

"Malayalam language has a rich history and Kerala is known for its literacy, educational status and social tradition and hence it would be in the fitness of things that the apex court judgments are available in Malayalam too.

"Kerala government has already taken a stand to get all the Kerala High Court verdicts in Malayalam and hence we are making the request," said Pinarayi.
