Question

what did India do to overcome the problem of a common language?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The problem of a lingua franca for India is one of fundamental importance for the building up of the Indian nation. Unfortunately, like all other national problems this also has got stuck in the mire of communal politics, and very little advance can really be made towards its solution so long as the communal question remains unsolved. There is no reason, however, why we should not begin to think seriously about its various aspects and come to some understanding about the difficulties which stand in the way, and how they can be overcome.

During recent years the problem has received increasing attention. In 1925 the Indian National Congress at its Karachi session decided that Hindustani should be the lingua franca of India. A few years later, the Hindi Sahitya Sammelan met at Nagpur, and Mahatma Gandhi invited a number of linguists and scholars there to consider the question. The Sammelan unfortunately modified the resolution of the Congress, and suggested that Hindi-Hindustani should be the lingua franca of India. This decision created a great deal of stir, specially among the nationally-minded Muslims, who keenly desired a settlement, but were disappointed by this resolution. At Indore the decision of the Sahitya Sammelan was confirmed, with the result that the communal tangle became much worse.
