The official standing of languages in Puducherry is governed by the 1963 assembly resolution to continue French as official language and the subsequent Pondicherry Official Language Act, 1965 which states under the heading "Official language of the Union territory" that Tamil is the language to be used for all or any official purposes in the Union Territory, while Malayalam and Telugu may be used in Mahé and Yanam respectively. The Act also stipulates that English may be used for any of the official purposes of the Union territory.
An official mention in Rajya Sabha Parliamentary debates during 2006 confirmed that the five official languages of Puducherry are Tamil, English, Malayalam, Telugu and French.[1]
