Should Hindi be the official language of India?

Hello, according to me, Hindi should not be our official language because in most state's of the India people don't use and understand Hindi.

Hello! Everyone.

About: Should Hindi is an official language?

According to me, That the people who belongs from the south. They will be want to speak HINDI because the cultural effects.

So, I am from SIKAR (Rajasthan). It is the Shekhawati region. As you know that the language of there is MARWADI. Approximately few families in our city will speak Hindi.

So, we discuss our topic.

As you all know that, In whole INDIA all the citizens speak Hindi because our India is Subcontinent which is different from physically, geographically, and culturally that's why they can't understand Hindi clearly. But approx all the Indian can understand English clearly.

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

Thank you! & have a good day.

No, as we all know each and every state of our nation has a unique language and pride associated with it and imposing a single language would go against the spirit of our nation and this in no way is demeaning hindi which is also a culturally rich and largely spoken language. Diversity is our strength and it must be kept intact.

I think India's national language shouldn't be Hindi because in parts of India people don't speak Hindi. So I personally think english should be the official language India. But I also think every Indian should know our mother-tongue Hindi.

You can't simply stick to a single language where there are multiple languages in a country like India. Language is something which is used to convey our thoughts, both the speaker and listener should be in the same state when they try to share their thoughts. But most of us in the south don't know Hindi and we are not even ready to learn it. I don't think so Hindi is more superior than other languages.

For me Hindi is our mother tongue language because I belong to north India but still I cannot impose the same for all my brother from another part of the country where they belong to south India. It is not that easy for a person to be linguistic based on common assumptions. It is good for them to respect Hindi but learn based on their interest staying in their comfort zone but not necessarily to impose Hindi on them. For an example is it necessary for a Brahman to learn all vedic puran? just because he belong to the same community. The answer is NO. He should respect but learn according to his suitability. So to mug up with the very same problem English became a common ground for all of the Indians to communicate not only nationwide but internationally which is the extra plus point because all I can say this is a language which is being taught since childhood to all of us past of decades.

According to me hindi is not the official language of India because many people of the India not able to understand the hindi properly and English is better language to communicate.

Hi everyone,

India does not have a national language as there are more than 1600 languages in India and it would result in chaos. However as per the Indian Constitution Hindi (Devagiri script) and English are the official languages already.

No doubt Hindi language embraces beauty and we Indians are proud of it. But if we start from north and travel through towards south the use of hindi language goes on decreasing. Especially, the southern states which find it very difficult to speak as well as to learn hindi. They are more comfortable in english as compared to hindi. So currently I don't think that India is state of declaring Hindi as its official language.

India is banyan tree. All languages are inspirational as it's branches. We are progressive so it is essential to understand themes of all literature and accept valuable thoughts. It does not matter Hindi should be national language are not.
