While governments were trying to “cripple” the country by de-emphasizing imparting education in native languages, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said here on Wednesday. Addressing the All India Conference of Official Languages in Surat on Hindi Day, Shah said that the “linguistic inferiority” created by the British regarding Rajbhasha Hindi and indigenous Indian languages needed to be removed.
“Previous governments have worked to cripple the country by de-emphasizing the provision of education in native languages, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi has started speaking in Hindi at world forums and is being heard more intensely than English-speaking leaders,” Shah said.He urged the youth to get rid of linguistic inferiority and embrace their mother tongue and rajbhasha Hindi.
Shah appealed to parents to speak to their children in their mother tongue. “Until our youth express their thoughts in their mother tongue, they cannot present their potential to the society. One’s original thought cannot be expressed in any language other than one’s own language,” Shah added.
