Imposition of new education policy: China facing protests in Inner Mongolia
Beijing: China is facing violent protests in Inner Mongolia over Beijing's decision to impose new education policy in the region.
The policy will mandate a transition to the use of the “national common language", which is Mandarin Chinese, in the local schools.
These institutions were using Mongolian language as the medium of teaching so far.
The new policy, which commenced at the beginning of the new semester in September, has created dissatisfaction in Inner Mongolia, The Economic Times reported.
The Chinese government has been facing widespread demonstrations from various sections of the society which include Mongolians and Uyghur Muslims over the recent past.
The issue of alleged spreading of COVID-19 pandemic from China has also left Beijing in a tough situation internationally.
