Use more and more Hindi to promote it: Shah

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday appealed to countrymen for more and more use of Hindi to contribute to the promotion of the national language.

In a video message released on the occasion of 'Hindi Diwas', he said that it was only due to Hindi that the perennial river of Indian civilisation, culture, and values had been kept alive.

He emphasised the use of Hindi in official work rather than a translation of documents.

The Minister said that India was coming up as a resources-rich country under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Hindi had played a big role in it.

"Speeches delivered in Hindi by Modi on international platforms had increased the stature of the national language on the world stage, which had inspired those who supported the language," Shah said.

  • एक देश की पहचान उसकी सीमा व भूगोल से होती है, लेकिन उसकी सबसे बड़ी पहचान उसकी भाषा है। भारत की विभिन्न भाषाएं व बोलियां उसकी शक्ति भी हैं और उसकी एकता का प्रतीक भी। सांस्कृतिक व भाषाई विविधता से भरे भारत में ‘हिंदी’ सदियों से पूरे देश को एकता के सूत्र में पिरोने का काम कर रही है।

Amit Shah extended greeting to countrymen

Union home minister Amit Shah also extended his wishes on the occasion of Hindi Diwas, calling the language as an “unbreakable part of Indian culture”, adding that Hindi has been working to “unify the whole country” for centuries.

“A country is identified by its border and geography, but its biggest identity is its language. The various languages and dialects of India are its strength as well as a symbol of its unity. In India, which is full of cultural and linguistic diversity, ‘Hindi’ has been working to unify the whole country for centuries,” Shah tweeted.

“Hindi is an unbreakable part of Indian culture. It has been an effective and powerful medium of national unity and identity since the freedom struggle,” he added.

Shah further said that with the recent implementation of the National Education Policy, along with Hindi, other regional languages would also develop at the same level. “With the new education policy of the Modi government, there will be parallel development of Hindi and other Indian languages,” Shah tweeted.
