The new year of education in Iran is going to be started in hours. It is for years that the only language for a multi national region is chosen as Farsi.

BayBak reports that there will be demonstrations inside and outside of Iran condemning the forced use of Farsi in Iran. Protesters of all non-Fars nations will gather to show their anger of assimilation policy adopted by Iranian regime.

Recently more than 15 people who are known as Azerbaijani scalars and intellectuals were arrested in Tehran. Their arrest comes after arrest of many Azerbaijani students who are still in custody without any access to lawyer. Family of Azerbaijani activist Abbas Leysanli were among them, Mr. Leysanlis 3 kids were taken to custody too.

Anger over force educating of non-Fars children in only Farsi is spreading all over the region and this year there will be some international statements made about this issue in Iran.
