Language based states have divided us by making everyone conscious of their language.
Harish: This Policy has only helped to consolidate the dominance of English over all other languages.
Ans. The position held by Sangeeta that the policy of accommodation have strengthened national unity is correct. The Central Government agreed to continue the use of English along with Hindi for official purposes to avoid the Lankan kind of situation. Otherwise, the movement against Hindi would have taken more ugly turn. Thus, the policy of the government has streagthened national unity. Hindi is being used along with English for official purposes.
Argument and Example supporting Sangeeta’s position:
Sangeeta: The Policy of accommodation has strengthened national unity.
– Argument: The policy of accommodating various languages has promoted inclusivity, fostering unity by recognizing linguistic diversity.
– Example: India’s multilingual approach, with Hindi as the official language and various regional languages, embodies unity in diversity. The adoption of multiple languages for official purposes acknowledges cultural richness, fostering a sense of unity among diverse linguistic groups.
