Had promotion of hindi shown any formation of the language. Explain.
Answers
The status of Hindi is the official language of India. Quote from part XVII of Indian constitution:
"The official language of the Union shall be Hindi in Devanagari script. The form of numerals to be used for the official purposes of the Union shall be the international form of Indian numerals. "
Schedule 8 languages are NOT what Gaurav Upadhyay says, they are NOT official languages of India at par with Hindi.
The purpose for these languages is defined in article 351 of the constitution:
"It shall be the duty of the Union to promote the spread of the Hindi language, to develop it so that it may serve as a medium of expression for all the elements of the composite culture of India and to secure its enrichment by assimilating without interfering with its genius, the forms, style and expressions used in Hindustani and in the other languages of India specified in the Eighth Schedule, and by drawing, wherever necessary or desirable, for its vocabulary, primarily on Sanskrit and secondarily on other languages."
So these languages don't exactly have an "official" status as of now. They are to be used as bases to enrich Hindi. Also, the government has to "take measures for the development of these languages, such that "they grow rapidly in richness and become effective means of communicating modern knowledge." In addition, a candidate appearing in an examination conducted for public service at a higher level is entitled to use any of these languages as the medium in which he or she answers the paper."
The other language at par with Hindi is English. English is the second Official language of India. It was made so as a transition from English (under British rule) can be smoothly done, and a period of 15 years was set aside, after which Hindi was to be the sole Official language. But due to protests in 1965 in TN, the transition was stalled and due to vote-bank politics, it has still not happened.
