Question

How did the Constituent Assembly seek to resolvethe language controversy?

Answer 1

• Hindustani : A choice of Congress and Gandhi. Before the independence of the country, the Congress had made up its mind to adopt Hindustani as the national language of the country. Mahatma Gandhi had also approved this decision. He was convinced that everyone should speak in a language which is understood by most of the common people. Hindustani was not a new language. It was a blend of Hindi and Urdu. It was a popular language as it was spoken by most of the people of the country. It was a composite language because it was enriched by the interaction of diverse cultures. That is why, Mahatma Gandhi preferred it to be the national language of India.

Dhulekar, a Congressman from the United Province. He wanted that Hindi should be used as the language of constitution-making. When he was told that all the members of the Constituent Assembly did not know Hindi, he felt infuriated and stated that those who did not know Hindustani were not worthy to be the members of the Constituent Assembly. He told such members to quit the Assembly. There was a commotion in the Assembly over his remarks. However the peace and order were restored due to the intervention of Jawaharlal Nehru.

In order to resolve the deadlock over the issue of language, it advocated that Hindi in Devanagri script should be the official language of the country. It also suggested that transition from English to Hindi would be gradual. It stated that during the first fifteen years since the enforcement of the new constitution, English would continue to be used for all official purposes. In other words, the Language Committee referred to Hindi as the official language and not the national language of India.

Answer 2

India being multi - religious country is also a multi linguistics country . At first Hindustani - a blend of Hindi and Urdu language was understood and used by all the people from various regious . With the deepening of communal conflict , Hindi and Urdu started growing apart . language became associated with the politics of religious identities . In one of the sessions of the constitument Assembly , R. v. Dhulekar , a congressman pleaded that Hindi language to be used as the language of constitument assembly . The language committee thought of a formula to resolve the deadlock . It decided but not declared that Hindi in Devanagari script cn be used as the offical language , but it will be gradually transformed to Hindi language . English was used as an offical language and each province was allowed to choose one of the regional languages for officl purpose within the province . By making Hindi as the officl language rather than the national language the Language committee thought that this solution would be accepted by all .
