The National Testing Service (NTS) was initiated as a recommendation of India's National Policy. It aims to design testing norms and models to assess language proficiency at various levels. To achieve this, NTS is creating three task groups for research, survey work, and consultancy/training. NTS will conduct voluntary tests for students in Class 12 and undergraduates studying language subjects initially. It will establish 30 centers across India, with a focus on 10 centers each for Tamil, Hindi, and Urdu. The tests will not require degrees but will be a sequence of characteristic assessments not focused on a single exam. NTS will offer its testing services to other agencies in the future.
