Answer: Hindi has been chosen as the official language. Only about 43% of Indians, however, speak Hindi as their first language. In our Constitution, no single language is designated as a national language. As a result, numerous safeguards were put in place to protect other languages.
India’s language policy is complex.
The Indian Constitution does not grant any language the status of the national language.
Twenty-one languages are recognized as official languages, in addition to Hindi.
As a precaution, the Indian Constitution has taken steps to prevent the imposition of Hindi in non-Hindi-speaking regions.
