I have read Mr Devinder Choora's balanced mail with respect. Unfortunately, Hindi seems every time to be forced on non Hindi people. Witness the recent agitation about UPSC examinations by Bihari and UP young people, putting others at a disadvantage. Hindi is getting into nonHindi states because of the cinema and should be allowed to make headway in that manner. Unfortunately there is an imperialistic tendency, whether fifty years ago when Purshottamdas Tandon as Congress President tried to force it leading to the near secession of Tamil Nadu from the Union,or now when you have only Hindi speakers in government. I am ashamed Thai North Indians even when they live in the South or elsewhere, make no attempt to learn the local language.but others going to Delhi or the North learn to manage Hindi. There is a Hindi imperialism in relation to other Indian languages. So long as it is there,Hindi will never be accepted nationally as an official language.

Friends All,i have followed the issue of Hindi and India's lingua franca, not only now over the internet, but over the previous decades, off and on -- now having touched my 80 th.Prem Sabhlok ji and a few others have been very pragmatic on this subject. IF quick & correct communication is our goal, then Hindustani, spoken or written ought to get promoted -- by All. Including the Centre & the States.English should continue to flourish, as it has done in the course of our near-to seven decades, soon.Literary Hindi has its place & no one should bar its growth, concurrently. All the current official languages of India should prosper and get any assistance from the States concerned or the Centre. Why not?Let us recognise and promote the richness of our culture that remains unique in the 21 st century in this sub-continent. Our languages, spoken and written by millions in our neighbouring countries help promote trade & commerce, cultural activities, education, etc. and thus a better understanding among the common people, at large.Hindi, Bengali and Urdu -- just to take ONE example are spoken or written very well by millions of Indians as by the citizens next door in Nepal, Bengal and Pakistan, respectively.(Having studied Urdu up to my high school from my days in Lahore and later Delhi, put me in a better stead when serving in the Middle East, or Afghanistan...)Hindustani cinema and the TV channels have promoted Hindustani perfectly; let us continue to support and build on that in the years and generations to come. Thus allowing with goodwill the support to all our Regional Languages and NOT hinder or suffocate their richness or growth.IF we or our policies in the future tend to do that, then i see "ourselves, cutting the branch of a tree on which we s tand" -- to hopefully bring this point to a conclusion.Shared with respect, asense of humility & good fortune to have been born an Indian!devinder das chopraaka dev chopra9810338049.***On 26 September 2014 11:22, Prem Sabhlok <premsabhlok@yahoo.co.in> wrote:Having lived in Assam, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra , Punjab, J and K and other parts of India, I noticed that even though their local language is different, People understand Hindustani and not Hindi. I gave two hour talk on Vedas in Pune and Chennai in Hindustani with a few words of English, local people could understand. Since people in different parts of India do not understand Hindi and Sanskrit, they developed their own scriptures in local languages. This has led to a lot of confusion by the followers of Vedic Sanatan Dharma. Let Hindi be made simpler by adding a few common words of Urdu, Tamil, Bengali etc. I find English language is also adding some common words of different languages. Shakespearean English people do not understand even in U.K. Even Americans find difficult to understand Australian English. I have been to Australia a number of times in the last 15 years , still can not understand what my grand daughter/grand son and their friends speak in English. Let Hindi evolve to Hindusatani including a few commonly used words of English.RegardsPrem Sabhlok ,On Friday, 26 September 2014 6:53 AM, R. Dua <r.dua1234@gmail.com> wrote:
Let's not play into the hands of the politicians.All languages are good.Hindi happens to be a common link between us Indians.Though i do beg to say that spoken Hindi is easy but written Hindi is another ball game.May be that consession can be made here.

This is fact a common person of Tamilnadu enjoys Hindi films as much as a person from UP or MP. Actors like Rajanikanth, Kamal Hassan, Sridevi, Vyjantimala, Padmini etc were accepted by Hindi speaking states, in spite of the fact that all these great people had slightly different accent.I feel its only a mental blockage / ego problem / political issue to oppose Hindi. By the way, states like Punjab, West Bengal, Gujrat, Maharashtra, Odisha, AP, Karnataka, Telangana, and all NE Staes are all non Hindi speaking states. I don't think all these states are being treated as second grade.It is really, a requirement to have a common language and since Hindi is generally understood and spoken by every part of the country, so it is prudent to accept Hindi as a compulsory language to be taught to all irrespective of which language is spoken in a particular state.SK ChaddaOn Wed, Sep 24, 2014 at 1:12 AM, Lalit Mohan Sharma <indiaresists@lists.riseup.net> wrote:Very Right SirEnglish is link language of the worldandHINDI is Link Language of INDIA.If Tamilians want to isolate themselves from rest of India, better to learn Tamil only. If they want to communicate with West, North, East India, it is better and easy to learn Hindi instead of learning different languages like Marathi/Gujarati, Punjabi, Bengali to communicate.Some of the anti nationals, particularly in Tamil Nadu proudly learn English (a Foreign Language) but not ready to accept Hindi (most spoken language in most of the states in India). Remember there are 28 other states also in India and not just Tamil Nadu.Compare - Hindi is spoken in how many states and in how many states Tamil is spoken?Hindi is widely spoken and understood in states having non-Hindi Official Language like Gujarat, Maharastra, Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, Bengal, Assam, Punjab, Jammu Kasmir. And what about Tamil outside Tamil Nadu?So Tamilians be proud in learning Hindi, the language of masses.

It is a fact of life today that english alone can be the medium of international discourse and hindi in India as this is a language which the largest number of people in India understand
Sent from my iPadHi,I am fully agree aboot Mr. Venkataramans thoughts. But we don't have any other language that could replace Hindi. Hindi Understanding population is far more than any other language understanding population. English is foreign language. We have to learn English as it is language of communication in the world. But at same time there are crores of people in all over India who doesn't understand English and Hindi too. So if a person then he maybe a Prime Minister of India want to communicate with people of India then it is better to communicate in Hindi because of following reason1) Hindi speaking population is far more than any other language speaking population in India.2) Speaker can't learn every language that get spoken in our country.3) Speaker can't use English though he knows it because Common people(Mango-People) does not necesarrily know the English language.So now we have to become matured enough to form One Country with various cultures, religions, languages but at same time with Common National Language with Common System that gives equal opportunities to all and we don't have any other alternative except Hindi to be our national language. So Non Hindi Speaking people must learn Hindi for communication purpose or for day to day Hindi. So that our country will get more binded than today.Specially Tamilians who opposed Hindi to become as National language must learn Hindi;Non Hindi Speaking people can learn English but why they hesitate to learn Hindi which is one of the most spoken language in our country where as English is foreign language. So now let's be matured and stop opposing Hindi to be a national language. Evon my mother tongue is not Hindi and It's not like that I don't love or I don't have pride of my mother tongue.But Hindi is the only alternative we have to be as national language.Thanks & Regards,PratikOn Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 7:56 PM, Venkatraman Ns <nsvenkatchennai@gmail.com> wrote:ToIndia Against CorruptionIMPOSITION OF HINDI ON NON HINDI SPEAKING STATESIt is surprising that those in charge of policy making in NDA government do not understand the intensity of the anger and frustration amongst the people in the non Hindi states due to the subtle attempts of Modi government to gradually impose Hindi.The genuine fear of the people in the non Hindi speaking states is that they would be reduced to second class citizens in the country if Hindi would be imposed , as those speaking Hindi will get distinct advantage over the non Hindi speaking people at the national level.Mr. Naredndra Modi does not seem to be aware of the intense and popular anti Hindi agitation in non Hindi speaking states particularly in Tamil Nadu, when Mr. Lal Bahadur Shastri was the Prime Minister. Schools and colleges had to remain closed for around three months in Tamil Nadu due to anti Hindi protest by the students. Finally, Mr. Shastri had to give an assurance that Hindi would not be made national language so long as non Hindi speaking people would not want it. The situation has not much changed as far as the imposition of Hindi is concerned.Today, India has enough problems and there is no feelings of difference in the country on language issue. Mr. Narendra Modi should not create new issues by trying to impose Hindi.Even today, many people in non Hindi speaking states , particularly in Tamil Nadu , feel like aliens as they do not understand Mr. Modi speaking Hindi everywhere without any translators. When he spoke in Hindi to the school children on Teacher's Day , lakhs of school students in non Hindi speaking states felt left out and wondered as to whether the Prime Minister belong to Hindi knowing people only.N.S.VenkataramanNandini Voice For The Deprived
