Soon they will decide what India will teach. But then there's hope. There are intelligent people still left not having sold themselves to Hindutva who will raise their voices. I hope. Hope is what's left.

We have children in the school who speak Hindi at home already having trouble with the very literary/bookish kind of language the textbooks promote. If a non-native Hindi speaker were to learn that, it'll be terribly hard, and mostly useless if they were to continue living in the south. And then here's how it'll play out - the students will not score well on the subject, CBSE will realize that very late into its imposition, the exams will be simplified till you reach a point where just about anyone can clear them, and the whole point of teaching Hindi for the sake of 'language pride' or whatever will not be met anyway. <br />Conversational Hindi, the useful kind, can be acquired from movies, yea!Priyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09671631876416310280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-36772937370400566042017-04-22T21:53:28.651+05:302017-04-22T21:53:28.651+05:30There's no need of Imposition if people find t...There's no need of Imposition if people find the language useful to them.

That would be horrifyingly funny. Education should always be need based and or interest based but there are things which should be taught to children for a wholesome development of their personality. And although Hindi is not our National language but it is indeed an official language and hence I do not find it a conspiracy of a particular party at imposing a language. As a union government it is their duty to spread the official language as a common indigenous language other than English.

People like Max Mueller or Herman Hesse took interest in Sanskrit and scriptures because highly intelligent people were motivated by philosophy and even spirituality in those days. Today people are motivated by purely pragmatic things. <br /><br />India's diversity is such that a homogeneous culture is impossible. Imposing it would be disastrous. That's why BJP is trying to do it deviously, surreptitiously, which is also not desirable.

Maybe the govt can subsidise Hindi movies in non-Hindi states :)<br /><br />The Central govt is unnecessarily interfering with schools. Today's newspaper says that schools cannot sell textbooks and uniforms. Why not? It is certainly a source of income for private schools. So what? Can't schools make some profit and thus provide better facilities to students and staff?

The truth is India is suffering from "Identity Crisis", Indians are going abroad for better facilities in every aspect but never heard that people from foreign countries are coming here.They have developed themselves much enough to be self-dependent from language to infrastructure to language, we need to be under their shade and this is also type of "dependence" this is why i believe we are still not "Independent".<br /><br />Every country should have a national language but the <br />condition of India is so critical that it cant be decided now.Jyotirmoy Sarkarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03895371896144643326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-7875627372812594392017-04-20T22:39:00.704+05:302017-04-20T22:39:00.704+05:30You have made a lot of valid points.

Besides, Bollywood movies are doing a great job in spreading Hindi. Can a diverse country like India, follow the example to Japan or France? Both much smaller and much more homogeneous countries. I hope better sense will prevail. Let states decide which language they should teach children in their territory. Is education not state subject?Abhijit Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053181712880530470noreply@blogger.com
