Explanation:
India has been a multilingual country for thousands of years with every region and every state has a different language and every language having a heavy impact in that particular region. The vastness and the magnanimity of India are known to everybody all across the world. India is a country with over 1.3 billion people having regional, religious, cultural, caste, creed and linguistic diversity at all fronts.[1]
The linguistic diversity of the country can be gauged from the fact, that as on date there are 22 scheduled languages, 100 non-scheduled languages and over 1700 dialects and other vernacular languages spoken all across the country. If we go by the philological studies, then in India language changes every eight kilometers. It may not be out of context to mention that each scheduled languages in India are spoken by over a million people, every non-scheduled language is spoken by at least 10,000 people and other dialects by other groups, sects, regions, etc.
One of the most controversial and political issues in Indian politics is related to language problems. After attaining independence, the Indian government decided to enact Hindi as the only official language of independent India. Hindi belonged to the lineage of Aryan languages. People who spoke other languages, especially Dravidians, saw in this decision an attempt to erase their language cultures. But the Indian constitution had declared that English can also be used for official purposes.
