Re: [IAC#RG] IMPOSITION OF HINDI ON NON HINDI SPEAKING STATES

Once, in 2007,I was getting reservation ticket at CST railway station of Mumbai. A Tamil-speaking person was in queue before me. He filled his reservation form in Tamil as he was unable to speak English or Hindi. But the ticket booking clerk was unable to speak or read the Tamil writing, so he could not understand where that passenger wants to go. A serious problem was generated there and time was passing as no one know Tamil language. After 20 minutes, one Tamil railway officer from reservation department came and filled the form in English and Tamil passenger got reservation ticket.

It means the people opposing Hindi don't have option of Hindi, as it is impossible to teach English to each and every citizen of Tamilnadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh (Telangana) English. But other hand, it is possible for them that they could average Hindi.

Since India a democratic nation. Every citizen has right to move every corner of country. For this citizen has option to speak English or Hindi. If you are going for pilgrimage like Amarnath or Vaishnodevi or Ajmer then you have to speak English or Hindi to convey your need to other. But after so many effort not more than 10 percent population learn English but without effort around 95 percent people understand Hindi and 90 percent speak. So, what is wrong to speak Hindi as in even very remote areas of the country an illiterate person can speak Hindi.

Mr. N.S.Venkataraman just come out from your sick mind set and try to understand the real problem. Yes if you want to live in your own state then keep continue opposing Hindi. But you can not prevent people of speaking Hindi.

Dear Shri Roy,

India is a multilingual society.If any of the langauages is imposed as an official language,others fear that tey will not get a level playing ground.More over some of the southern languages are older than Hindi.This type of fear can only be alleviated by time.If any imposition is made,it will attract violent protests.The Hindi speaking states have thrown into the dust bin the three language formula and are refusing to acknowledge any of the southern languages.The agitation by a section of the IAS 'aspirants' against class X level english comprehension test shows their intolerabce.Language is a dividing factor and time should be given to settle it.After all more people speak Hindi now a days in the south.Why are we not stressing on the unifying factor in our country,Hinduism.A Kasmiri Pandit is physically and linguistically different from a southern Tamilian.So also is a Manipuri or Assamese from a Rajasthani or Gujrathi.But all of them have a common religeous heritage.Why not stress on that.If English is not allowed why should we allow Islam and Christianity both alien religeons. The problem is that we are still carrying Nehru's 'secular ghost'.

Dear Mr Venkatraman
 
This is an emotive and divisive issue which has been discussed several
times before here. Nothing will be served by going over the same
ground. in any case Mr. Modi is not Mr Shastri.
 
Yes, Mr. Modi belongs to the Hindi knowing group (he knows some /
enough English). Get used to the new reality - "jaise Raja vaise
Praja' (what the King is so must be the people). If you want English
back, you know who to vote for next as PM (even if he is a sex-addict
junkie / flunky).
