Hello,
Preference of language while writing the paper all depends on your preference and also on the basis of the fact that which mode of language you have selected. If you have opted for English language then definitely you can give the paper in English language. Also, if you feel afraid before giving the paper you can ask this query to the office or help line to make it more clear. You can talk to the support centre or else go to the centre as well.
