Should Hindi be the official language of India?

Question is not just about which language should NL, actually are we on the right path to bbecoming a developed country. The answer is no.

First of all, Indian constitutional structure is wrong we have 29 different states which are equivalent to 29 different countries similar to countries in the European Union. Most of the EU countries are developed but India even after 70 years of independence still underdeveloped country. Reasons are we could not follow capitalism properly like all developed countries have followed or currently following. We are the only country which directly jumped to service sector from agriculture we have almost skipped manufacturing step due to this most jobs we have are either related to service sector or agriculture when it comes to manufacturing of good products we import them from other countries because of this we have big trade deficit. Now if we want to solve this issue n become manufacturing major we have give good quality industry oriented practical education in this case which language will we choose for education English or Hindi as we know AFA English is concerned our large mass really can't do critical thinking in English as most of our mass belongs to rural. N for Hindi only northern states are comfortable others are not so both choices are wrong whole nation education system. If we really want to follow capitalism in right manner we must get quality technical education in our mother tongue this applies to every state of India, that is what is done Japan, Korea, Germany, France, UK, China. They take knowledge in their mother tongue so they better understands it n their people use this knowledge to create products which create jobs n industries. While in India we people get education in English which only God knows how many of us really understands deeply & result is in front of us we have very well English speaking people in Asia. Even after producing 1. 5 lakh on paper engineers how many jobs were created I have seen people who are engineers, science graduates, PhDs they are filling applications banking jobs, government Jobs. Even after taking technical education why such bad time come to you answer either you did not study or you could not understand what you were taught in institutes. What our graduates do apart from speaking good English can they good technology products, can they create a new research or do inventions probably is the answer is NO. The biggest fault of our education system is that we are producing English speaking people under the name of education which don't have any knowledge to produce anything they are just good at English talking. Our tongues are molded but brains are wasted because of a deficit of education system. The economy runs by-products, services we are good are creating services not products so our youth is getting unemployed. We are importing electronics, technologies, advanced healthcare devices, advanced medicines, fuel, engines, machines, vehicles, bullet trains. Which we could have designed by yourself if our youth had got a quality education in their own mother tongue. We have destroyed our brains of youth by giving education in a foreign language. Look at the area of any European country all are so small compared to our states but well developed than India. We really need to change our centralised system to distributed one. Each state must take responsibility to develop their economy. ONE PARLIAMENT in Delhi really can never handle the burden of 29 states. We need to change our centralised system to states focused system.

As per my opinion, a single language cannot be the official language of a country like India where multiple languages are being spoken. One more factor is that in many states or cities people even understand Hindi. Besides this nowadays the Indian market has Imphal numbers of Foreign companies where English is the only language even in many govt offices we use English only. So A single language cannot play well.

Indian democracy is the union of states so while expressing this type of points one should know about the constitution and their respective laws laid down by it. INDIAN PEOPLE BELIEVE IN CULTURE AND CIVILISATION SO IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO DERIVE ONLY ONE LANGUAGE. ACTUALLY, IF WE THINK PRACTICALLY WHY WE PEOPLE GETTING all systems of western type.

What's about culture people and their traditional thoughts why matters this interrupting ideas and expressions of people. The rural population is more than urban and. Who are illiterate what about them. Is there any government classes conducting for illiterate people to teach them English. If all people talk in English all people lives in cities then who live in villages Hill areas to maintain agriculture then who works in factories then who sales street marketing products. OFFICIALS DOESN'T NEED ANY KNOWLEDGE BECAUSE THEY ALREADY GETTING PROPER EDUCATION AND LIFE SO HINDI MUST OUR HOME LANGUAGE BECAUSE OF THIS TASTE AND HAPPINESS AND WAY OF EXPRESSIONS.

Hello Friends,

I feel that the Hindi language could have been an official language if everyone is speaking Hindi in India. India has 22 official languages. According to Census of India, the total number of mother tongues spoken in India is 1652. However, only around 150 languages have a sizable speaking population. The Indian census of 1961 recognised 1, 652 different languages in India (including languages not native to the subcontinent).

With these statistics, if we make Hindi as an official language then Indian citizen will only suffer.

Thanks.

I think no need of this, but don't make English a standard. I mean don't judge the people from their ability of speak in English.

Yeah, we should make Hindi as an official language. There is no danger for the growth or make any difference between our bilateral relations or discussion. Even our prime minister addressed In foreign countries in hindi and instead of That our international relations are getting better. So english language is only increasing difference in our society. Hindi medium and english medium has now developed in people minds. Hindi people are looked by educated people like they are alien or what. Which shows gaps in our country among people how it would progress?

Well, I won't say anything more because this is India anything could happen here so leave it.

Hi, friends as the topic of discussion is Hindi be the official language of India.

First of all, I want to tell exactly what is the official language. The Official language is that which is use by the government, public and citizen for the official purpose, official paper, official meet and interaction between public and government official and mostly in education. Therefore official language has an enormous impact on economic, social relation.

Now, in my opinion, Hindi should not be made the official language of India as of now. I like to dictate the following reason.

1. As of now, we are a developing country, due to which we need to take help from other developing country and most of the developed country has an official language is English. Therefore as a developing country, we need to improve our relationship with other developed countries for bilateral talking, discussion. Therefore for sharing an issue, we need to communicate in English.

2. India is a diverse country, where there is a different culture, different language, different religion due to which making Hindi as an official language is a big issue. Most of the region in India does not know how to speak, write Hindi. Therefore if Hindi will make an official language than there will be chaos.

Apart from this, I want to inform that our neighbouring country China use only there language mandarine. But we can not follow them. Because there are develop the country and now they do not need help from others. In this globalised world, they can survive very well, as we know they are 12 trillion dollar economy after the USA.

Finally, I want to tell that if one day Hindi will become an official language I will very happy after becoming a developed country. Thank you.

Hi, I am Dhiosmati Devi from guwahati (Assam).

My opinion is totally against it. Hindi should be used as a regional language not as an official. It may create some problems in the field of foreign relation, a diplomatic relationship which is most important part for our country to growth development. If it does not happen then our country will go back to the 14th century in the field of economic, political and social growth. For example,

India has a good relationship with America. But if Hindi registered as an official language, how can the Americans delivered their thoughts. Indirectly, Indians must be dependent on the English language. It will arise other many difficulties. Although India already has to face many problems. So it nice makes it clear that English should be an official language instead of Hindi without any hide and seek.

It can be the official language of India but it requires huge time to make it official. I can say for our generation it can't be the official language but from next generation, I can be official and this will take time.

India has around 200 languages in 33 states.

And we have to select only one, those persons who understand Hindi will be beneficial for them if we make it official.

Every person brought up with his/her mother tongue and they learn English side by side so that they can communicate in future. If they can learn English then they also can learn Hindi.

French and China has their official language as French and Chinese respectively and most of the youth of China never learn English due to which they can not apply for the foreign jobs but in India youth learn English they apply for the post of CEO like Sunder Lal Pichai (google ceo) and it is also beneficial in cricket also, most of the country talk in English only and Indian easily understand their plans but Indians like dhoni instruct the teammates in Hindi but sludges the opponent in their own language (English).
