I already said that it can be made mandatory that native Hindi speakers be made to learn a second Indian language throughout their school life and it's then obvious that they will have to pass exams in that language. I am only supportive of using Hindi in areas where there's a necessity of using only one language like science and tech at the national level, central govt records, inter-state or centre-state communication, defense etc.
partially agree. The governmental communications should be in all the Languages of India. This requires a team of bi-lingual experts to translate the documents. for RnD, DPSU's, Armed forces I agree for the usage of Hindi. But the Docs again should be translated in all the Native languages, this way we can preserve and grow all the Languages of India.
Otherwise I always support native languages for administration, education at the state level, etc. In fact I believe that all major languages of India should be made official at the central level for use when politicians talk in parliament or during foreign trips with govt taking the responsibility of providing simultaneous interpretation (which is at present being provided in only Hindi and English). If any person asks for any info from central govt in their native language then central govt should make arrangements to provide him the same.
One of the greatest points put in the debate of bridging India's Multilingual landscape. Add, every document in India should be translated and filed in every language of this country.
Countries like Belgium and Switzerland are also multilingual but are doing well enough without using any foreign language and without imposing any one language on non-native speakers. India is a multilingual country and we can also work without English and without damaging our multilingual culture.
I wonder why the greatest men who liberated this nation from colonial clutch never thought in this direction.
Add:
education to any children should be in their native language. but we should first create technical and science terminologies and systems that are agreeable for all the languages of this country (this will help in inter-working between people from different lingual groups). Even we should create Indian equivalent of Metric system and the terminologies should be named in common agreed words. This will help us to eliminate not only the requirement of English, but also will allow the students and scholars to think in their mother tongue. If these can happen, will be one of the greatest achievements of the Idea of United India.
If we can Bring the Lingual groups closer to each other and respect all the languages alike, Bharath will be one always.
