[align=center]"English Medium Students in trouble"[/align]

It is absolutely correct that English Medium students have very poor knowledge of their mother tongue. I am a teacher in one of the English Medium schools. I have just joined and was stunned to find out the students' poor knowledge in Bengali.
Last week I took a test in my class (standard IV) where the students were to write the word meaning of some Bengali words (in English).
