PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal is set to deliver its ruling on the appeal of four non-governmental organisations (NGOs) which sought to declare that the use of Chinese and Tamil languages as the medium of instruction in vernacular schools goes against the Federal Constitution.

Security was tight at the entrances to the Palace of Justice on Thursday (Nov 23) in anticipation of a gathering or rallies.
