Studies show when the exam is taken in a vernacular medium, students tend to score more marks. That in turn shows us that domain knowledge is not limited to those who are fluent in English or even Hindi.

2. More opportunities for Rural Students 

When exams are conducted in a vernacular medium, students from the smaller towns and rural areas can compete with other students from urban areas who are good in English or Hindi. This will help the evaluators pick the correct students and make better assessments of the students.

When CUCET will be conducted in these many languages, it encourages students across the country to study. This will also promote equality of languages.
