The Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has introduced programmes in Urdu and Arabic languages, an official said on Monday.
The university is offering Bachelor of Arts programme in Urdu and a certificate programme in the Arabic language. The eligible students should either have Urdu as their mother-tongue or be proficient in Hindi.
The Urdu programme is essentially meant for those who can speak Hindi and Urdu but do not know how to read, write and correctly pronounce the words whereas the programme in Arabic aims at a gradual and systematic coaching to read, write and speak the language, added the official.
"The programmes will help the students in developing and improving script writing and pronunciation skills. The student develops the competence in the areas and also the ability to extract the socio-cultural information with the texts," the official said.
The minimum duration to complete the programmes is one year and the maximum is three years.
