Colleges' forum bats for Tani Lipi script

From our correspondent 
Itagar, July 31: Aruchal Pradesh Colleges’ Forum (APCF) has voiced in favour of adopting Tani Lipi (script) as indigenous script and introducing it in school and college curriculum across the state.
The forum has expressed concern stating that many tribal languages of the state are on the brink of extinction. “The scripts developed by Tony Koyu is user friendly, scientific and have many highly useful features. Once the script is adopted, it will gain popularity among the indigenous people,” the APCF said in a release here on Monday.
While endorsing the same demand made to the Government earlier by Abo Tani Clan Youth Organization, APCF further stated that adoption of the scripts will also prove a great boon, when it comes to preservation and promotion of tribal languages.
