Answer:

India offers a very diversified geographical, ethnic, cultural, linguistic, political, economic and religious panorama. Its cultural heritage has a recorded history for over 4,500 years .

Indian landscapes are diverse

The total land area of India is 3,3 millions square kilometres where we can find desert areas (in the west), high mountain ranges (in the north), sunny beaches (in the south) and even jungles (in the north east).

Different people

The Indian subcontinent comprises various populations. In the north of India, people are predominantly Indo-Aryan, fair skinned and very tall. In the south and by the Indian Ocean, the population is mainly Dravidian, of darker complexion and medium height. From the west of India to the East, people are rather tribal groups with Tibeto-Burman features.

Over 1,600 languages and dialects

India has a total of 22 constitutional languages and over 1,600 languages and local dialects. We distinguish two major linguistic families: the Indo-Aryan languages in the north and the Dravidian languages in the south.

The official languages of the central administration of India are Hindi and English. However, contrary to what one might think, English is spoken by only 5-10 percent of the Indians. These English speakers are mainly found in urban areas and jobs related to information technologies and communication, computer science or legal professions since the official texts of the central government are mostly published in English. Similarly, not all Indian people speak Hindi being spoken by an estimated 30-40 percent of the population.

22 languages are recognized in India and officially adopted by the states of the Indian Union: Assamese, Bengali, Bodo, Dogri, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Kashmiri, Konkani, Maithili, Malayalam, Manipuri, Marathi, Nepali, Oriya, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Santhali, Sindhi, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu.

Besides these 22 languages, there are local dialects. Then, there are a total of over 1,600 languages and dialects in India.
