Should Hindi be the official language of India?

In my opinion, I feel that Hindi need not be the official language of India. However, its present status needs to be uplifted.

India is a country with a rich heritage incorporating more than 300 regional languages in herself. In case Hindi is made our official language, the numerous regional languages occupying their beautiful episodes in our History may feel endangered. And in our present scenario, where already our citizens hanker after the foreign culture, such a step may wipe out the essence of our literary diversity.

There is a large fraction of our populace which is not familiar with any language other than its mother tongue. Every person honours his/her mother tongue. Therefore, any effort to make Hindi our official language will lead to a chain of chaos all around.

However, I would also like to add that the present status of Hindi in India is so poor that the future of the glorious language seems to be uncertain. We need to understand that although we, the citizens of India are divided by other regional boundations, but we are united as Indians. Thus, there must be a language that should connect our hearts and souls, like the pearls in a necklace.

Thus, Hindi must be a compulsory language, but need not be an official one.

Every Indian must study at least two languages, one his/her mother tongue and Hindi.

Hello everyone!

I'm glad to start Group discussion.

As our topic is "should Hindi be the official language of India". Yes, it should because there are many students who have knowledge but they are lacking to show there knowledge oming to English only. They not feel confident in English that's why there knowledge get spoiled. Companies want parrot who speak fluently even if don't have knowledge and not suitable for the post.

Hello.

Myself Pankaj swami.

According to me, Hindi should be the official language of India.

1. Hindi is #3 place in the worlds most speaking language.

2. In India, Hindi is the most common language by that we can communicate with people easily in India.

3. There are 69 per cent people of India speaks Hindi easily.

Thanks all of you.

Yes, Hindi should be declared the official language of India. As about 69% of the total population of India use Hindi to communicate.

Yes, from my point of view, Hindi should be an official language of India as India has the majority of Hindu people and I think if Hindi be the official language the condition of our country would have resulted in better form.

My opinion is that conflict and disunity occurs if Hindi or any other Language of India is declared as official language. If English is declared as the official language there would be no reason of conflict and unity can be maintained among other states as well as English will be proposed as a must language to be learnt which helps us to develop a prosperous country.

Hello.

I am Palak. I am in favour of this statement that "Hindi should be the official language of India".

Many people are saying that the development of our country can be done with English but I oppose this statement because as we all know that there was the rule of Britishers in India approximately 200 years then why our country "India" doesn't develop by that time with English used by Britishers?

From my point of view, that our country"India" is developing rapidly with "Hindi".

So according to me, "Hindi should be the official language of India".

Thanks.

The debate regarding the status of the official language of India is an ongoing process. One group of people demand Hindi to be recognized as the official language and another demand English. The Modi government is giving stress in promoting the Hindi language across the country. Even though this is being criticized by certain political parties in Tamil Nadu, the effort has gained a bit of success.

Hello.

The Hindi language gives our nation the name of Hindustan. So we should be proud of the Hindi language.

Our Constitution has also declared Hindi as an Official language of India in year 1950.

Hindi is our mother tongue of all Indians. We all respect to our mother tongue. Hindi is easy to learn, speak and understand.

So, According to me, Hindi should be the official language of India.

Hello! Now, I am in favour of English. If we go for trade in foreign countries then we have to know English to communicate with foreigners. English is our international or global language. So we should know English.

Thanks.
