Hats off Sonu Nigam ji for courageously speaking upfront to this unnecessary issue, it's such a shame to know that we are still having issues with each other languages, India is a diversity country does people don't know this.
We are not having issue with any Indian Language. The issue is with English turning into India's medium of intercommunication and our old knowledge systems, values and national character dying out along with our mother tongues.
@me Hindi is going to phase out English, not your mother tongue. And why should 1.4 billion people learn English if only a handful who plan to go abroad really need it? Once Hindi replaces English, corporate sector jobs will start using Hindi as well.
I am a Tamilian and I don't bother which language is oldest.. let it be any but all Indian languages needs to be preserved and respected. It's our own and we should not let them disappear

Aniruddha Sajja okay this is not true. mother tongues die when people stop using them. And that's almost always the people's fault, not the fault of some other language. There are MANY people in Delhi from Bengal, Kerala and even North-eastern states. They speak Hindi with their friends outside, English and Hindi's combination in schools and offices, but when they go back home, they make it a point to speak only in their mother tongue. This is a habbit you have to develop on your own. If you go back home and speak Hindi or English, then blame of losing your mother tongue goes on you, not on English or Hindi languages. Sorry, I know being multi-lingual seems hard, but if you give it a try, it would come to you naturally sooner or later. And then your Pahaddi language would be saved too while coexisting with other languages.

And to preserve the multi-linguistic society that we all boast about whenever we go to a foreign country or talk to a foreigner, we must not enforce Hindi or any other language to non-native speakers.

@@JavedKhan26872 Urdu originated in northern India, particularly around the Delhi - Lucknow belt.

@@JavedKhan26872 I partly disagree with what you've said. The Brits did not impose their language, religion or culture on us.

It is the more privileged among us who willfully learned their language so that we could thrive in the societal structure laid down by them.

The whole point of choosing Hindi as the common language of India comes from the fact that most of the North Indians are able to speak and understand it easily while there's no single language that can be picked by South India for communication as a whole. While it may be hard at first, but ease in communication is how you develop relationships and using English for that is a slap on the cultural depth of this country.

Do people commenting here understand that among the major languages spoken in India, Hindi is the most foreign to Indian culture (excluding English, of course)? The hindi that is spoken today is only 50% Sanskrit, the rest is Persian and Arabic. When you insist that speaking Hindi will preserve culture, you are absolutely wrong my friends.

Now, if someone says, why English is chosen as a link language while being a foreign language, and why not use Hindi? Well, the answer is, "ENGLISH IS A GLOBAL LANGUAGE". People who don't understand how big of a useful tool English has become for us, please see how many Software companies, foreign consultancies, BPOs, trade centers are set up in India only because it has a huge skilled English speaking population. If you've got to compete with the world today, English is imperative!!! Even Germany, Japan, France, Italy, China now do not hold linguistic requirements for studying or working there because they now have realized that using English doesn't decrease their national pride, instead increases their national treasury. Now as a nation if we plan to move backwards instead of forward, then we can have all these debates and discussion regarding language. Funny thing is, most people who say that Hindi should be the national language, do not even read any literature in Hindi. I met a very few Hindi speaking people who actually never read Dinkar ji's or Munshi Premchand ji's works, let alone contemporary Hindi literature but say Hindi should be the national language.
I think you've answered your own question , just like you said that english is important to use it's used widely across the world , just like hindi is widely spoken across the india , you can't communicate in india without Hindi cuz being most common language in india, for any work & purposes an individual needa learn Hindi just you gave justification for the use of english language
@@thegreatestdemon1288 No. Hindi is not spoken if you move to southern states also NE. I belong from NE and staying in South for last few years. Just because you live in a small cocoon doesn't mean that's the entire world. Also, if I have to communicate to someone who doesn't want to accept Hindi why should I force them to use a language that I know or prefer? I can either use an alternative language, or learn their language or even simpler, use a translation voice recognition app.
@@Pritam_K_Chakraborty The irony is the most loved sport in India is of UK origin, the richest Cricket board is BCCI, the most popular domestic cricket league is IPL. And still these people have a problem with English.
I love the situations when two people (not knowing each other's language) try to speak with their hand gestures, signs. That's the moment when they struggle and try their best to get connect with each other irrespective of the language. That's the moment when they laugh on each other and try to get connect. Hindi or other regional language should not be inforced on others. Like when North Indian visits South India and vice-versa, they should try to get connect through the hearts. Of course, language is a barrier. But it can be overcome by learning each other language and giving respect to each other
Nation building done without any national language. It's been around 75 years of independence and India has reached to a stage where Powerful country like Russia, America listen to us. All these days we never find the necessity of National language. Let it be same.... We have got thousands of language... No one is great...
Not national language but a bridge language will definitely bring us closer. I personally feel Sanskrit should be bridge language, but hindi is also fine as it is widely understood. I don't understand why people go against any language. Languages are for communication as rightly said by Sonu Sir, not for building community.
@@aniruddhasajja9561 She has point though. Every damn Asian Power Houses has it's own language that's what make it unique. May be it China or Korea or maybe Japan for example. Now don't tell me that they have one language and India got many. Over the period of time or after 100 years, everything will settled down. If everyone ready to accept one common language along with mother tongue then it's really great to nation. Common language shouldn't divide but must unite us.... I'm against any imposition but if everyone is ready then good for us
@@deepakmeenepu933 We already have Hindi as the de-facto/unofficial majority language. Only two Indian states don't teach it - Tripura and Tamil Nadu. Don't ignore the rest of 26 states who do teach it and hence, Hindi at least exists there, even if it's not a much used language there. The point is, we don't need to put Hindi down as national language on paper, because with that there would be too much burden on some states. And let's not make English our national language either. We should let this space remain where if a natural majority arises, cool...but if it doesn't, then our respective mother tongues remain our top priority as always.
As a tamilian who can speak Hindi very well. I agree.. But what I can say is, thanks to globalization lot of our friends are from north and so we are getting used to passively listening and learning Hindi all the time. That is good enough, I am always around hindi ppl and they speak in hind because I understand them 95% of the time, if we achieve this level of unity in country, then its golden !
This was needed... If people(it can be anyone irrespective of where they belong) make controversies for their own benifit and divide people then other people must come forward to counter it with right facts and unite everyone..
As a Pakistani it hurts me that you guys are fighting over languages jab k dunya may aur problems bhi bhut hain. Stay strong and united. Jis ki jo language hai wo wahi bolay. Here in Pakistan we speak Urdu while we are in Punjab aur someone jaha humari mother tongue koi nahi samjta otherwise in our particular regions like in Balochistan we speak Pashto and Balochi, in Gilgit, Balti and Shina, in Sindh, Sindhi and same in other regions. So be united and make one beautiful India. Love and prayers from Pakistan ❤🙏🏻
Haha You pakistanis should 1st go and read some history about your own country specially why Bangladesh (east Pakistan) was separated from todays pak. The main reason was frequent clashes between urdu speaking and bangla speaking people in east Pakistan. Imagine your own country broke into pieces due language diversity but you feel sad about some other country. Begani shadi me abdullah diwana🤣
i respect this man 🤩 for his respect towards all other languages. this is what we all (non-speakers) trying to convey from so many year , he asked every single question which were in my heart 😅❤️
Agree with everything he mentioned. Very sensible way to convey a point. I just want to correct a sentence there. Tamil is not the oldest language. Tamil is the oldest language still in use.
People sometimes forget that they are a part of a diverse country so they tend to find differences and because of that few people want their own nation creating disturbance in india..you are Indian and your language religion or etc..is also a part of whole nation..
This idea of one language will not work well in India. We will have to acknowledge the fact that diversity is our true identity this is what makes us so much different form other civilization, and as a responsible citizen we must try preserve this uniqueness and we must embrace our diversity.
Being a Punjabi and Hindi speaker I agree that Hindi should not be our National Language. But the way we respect other languages the same respect should be given to our languages as well (including Hindi). Recently a Tamil Nadu Education minister has told that "Hindi Speakers sell pani-puri". What is this? I hope TN people should understand that their Education system is not in Good Hands now. They will keep on Feeding the Kids with this type of ideology.
Itni diverse country mae koi national language nahi honi chahiye. There is no national language in India. Respect everyone, every language, every community to stay united and don't fight among ourselves..
But there is should be a language to unite us all. And that language shouldn't be a European one. A language that isn't even Indian. So naturally, that language should be Hindi.
@@spacemann1425 what language has to do, to unite us? We have been united for more than the life that you have seen. Only now we r divided by speaking about a language to unite us.
@@sravanjosh kuch bhi. South mein ek madrasi dusare rajya ke madrasi se baat nahi kar sakta. Kyun ki unke paas koi samaan bhasha nahi hai. Wahi hindi ek gujarati ko Assamese se aur ek odia ko Kashmiri se baat karne ki suvidha uplabdh karata hai. Madrasis are rank chauvinists.
@Poopy Face Tomato nose Nadia Whittome naam se kuch frak ni padta tum 60% ho but 40% ka opinion agar differ krta he to accept kro Kyuki India ko independent krne ka kaam sirf hindi bolne walo ne nahi kiya tha
@@rajshreesharma6500i don't want to talk divided, but to speak in your own language, for two madarasi's to talk is madarasi's problem and why you North indians try to solve it. They don't consider our problems while allocating the budget, but comes first in enforcing these useless things. Now tell me who is Chauvinistic.
That's correct. Sanskrit and Tamil are the oldest languages of the world. We should not try to dominate over language because it doesn't make any sense. We are a civilization with hundreds of languages.
Nation first, everything is second. I support the diversity in our country. It is what makes us unique. No other country is as diverse and vibrant as India is so let us just accept the fact that we are beautiful the way we are. Jai Hind Jai Bharat!
