Re: [IAC#RG] Fwd: Hindi SE rashtravaad KA sambandh

Wow! Rina, Harpal & Col TT,

Good to hear nice views on the language issue.

Here is what I would like to add.
I have been in the Army for 21 years and traveled all over india. Commanded South indian troops (Madras Sappers) , now settled in US and have traveled to Africa, China, Europe, south America and many other places.

First observation is that we should be proud Indians and have one common language ie Hindi. So that as an Indian we don't feel outsider in south or east india.

Also we must learn English to communicate with the outside world. I can see how in US chinese people feel small due to Indian soft ware experts are good in English. One good thing done be Pt Nehru.

Learn at least one more foreign language eg French/Spanish/German etc to have a better reach in the world.

Local language or mother tounge is naturally learned at home but should be taught as third language so that kids can read and write easily.

More languages learned makes kids well rounded person and create /generate curiosity in them to learn other cultures which will make them smarter.

So cheers! Have fun. Learn more as its never enough.
