Is Language a constraint at Chennai?

[unclocked]

Hello All,
I am sure this must have been asked before, but due to ergency I'll ask the question first and search the site later.

I am trying to get a visitor visa for MIL who does not speak English. Hence, I would have to make an appointment with my local language. However, VFS website seems to be totally messed up and I can't get an appointment. Is it ok to make a regular appointment and ask for a translater at the time of interview? Or does it have to be scheduled with a translater only?
Any experience in that regards from people here?

TIA for any leads,
UC

Hi Krishna,
I tried booking appointment for my parents. I chose TELUGU as language option for my father. Then I added my mother along with my father. But it didnot prompted me to choose language. Both of them got the same interview time (Aug9th - 3PM). But my mother's interview letter says the language as ENGLISH. What do you think. Do I need to cancel entire application and try booking again. Or would it be OK. When my father and mother go for interview, will both of them be interviewed at the same time or different?

Thanks
Shashi
