@PraNam_official They claim that the 3 lang policy has been in place for decades. Can they enlighten me on the number of UP kids who have learnt any one of South Indian languages / Assamese / Bengali / Marathi / Gujarati? Compare it with those from non-Hindi States who have learnt Hindi ......2/n
@PraNam_official 2/n

Look at no. of kids per thousand who've learnt the "other" language.
@PraNam_official 3/n

Courts accept English & Hindi.

Why not all Schedule VIII Languages?

Example of Hindi Imposition
@PraNam_official 4/n

If, in Parliament, an MP wants to speak in English/Hindi, he doesn't need to give advance notice. If he wants to speak in any other language, he has to give advance notice.

This is Hindi Imposition.

All railway stations have "place boards" in English, Local language & Hindi. Not in any other Schedule VIII Languages.

This is Hindi Imposition.

Most public services have announcements in English, local language & Hindi. Why not in other Schedule VIII Languages?

Most public sector / Govt organizations seek applications in English / Hindi. At best in the local language. Not in any other Schedule VIII Language.

Safety announcements - be it mundane LPG cylinders or "elite" flights - are in English, Hindi & at best the local language. Not in any other Schedule VIII Language.

This is Hindi Imposition.

@PraNam_official 10/n

Most Lok Sabha / Rajya Sabha announcements are only in English & Hindi & seek suggestions only in Hindi & English. (Perhaps even this draft policy) Not in any of the other Schedule VIII Languages.

This is Hindi Imposition.

Hundreds of years of planned strategic narrative set by Europeans
William Jones,1746-1794
Brain Houghton Hodgson,1800-94
Bhishop Robert Cladwell,1814–1891
Friedrich Max Muller,1823-1900
Herbert Hope Risley,1851-1911
have successfully fragmented 🇮🇳society!

Adding to it @TrueIndology 🙏🏻,
William Jones translated Manusmriti in 1794, distorting Jati structure,
mapped Sanskrit linguistics into Biblical ethnology.
Indians as per him are the offsprings Noha’s cursed, barbaric, immmoral, dark son, Ham!
@TrueIndology Shri Ram according to him is Raamah who reconstituted 🇮🇳society after Noha’s flood!
Kush is Ham’s grandson Cusa.
Matsya, Kurma, Varaha Avatars of Vishnu ji are within Noha’s story,
Narsimha Avatar is Nimrod, a descendent of Ham..
whatever didn’t fit Biblical events is mythology❗️

Sad to see the Hindi bashing handles get so blinded by hate. I just read one go so far as to claim that Hindi writers (incl Jaishankar Prasad) are not as close to Sanskrit lexicon as say Kannada!!

We post representative writings of H writers - readers can see for themselves

1/n
Pages from the four most celebrated works of Jaishankar Prasad:
1) Novel कंकाल
2) Drama ध्रुवस्वामिनी
3) Short Story पुरस्कार
4) Poem कामायनी

If you didn’t get every single word of these writings, you probably didn’t learn Sanskrit, for each word here is from Sanskrit
2/n
Next I post Sita Ram Goel ji’s writing in Hindi.

You can not comprehend it if you did not know Sanskrit.

Many families (mine included) face tough decisions on what #languages to speak at home. There's a lot of #myths about early #bilingualism , like:
-Kids will get confused
-They'll have lang delays
-They won't learn the majority/dominant language

More info: hanen.org/Helpful-Info/A…
In my family, my dad spoke #arabic and my mom spoke #english. My dad was concerned about me learning English so after about 5 y/o, we hardly spoke Arabic. Since I didn't have any Arabic-speaking peers or teachers, my Arabic suffered attrition and now I understand, but not speak
My case isn't uncommon either-many early #bilinguals and #heritagespeakers often don't have the linguistic support systems (at home or in school) to maintain their languages, due to factors such as lang myths, discrimination, lang policy in schools, etc

leaders of the so called Dravidian Movement consider Christian Missionaries & Britishers as Saviors of Tamil Language. Let me expose the shallowness of their argument & narrate how the missionaries were instrumental in sowing the regional divide to foster their conversion agenda
1. Christian Missionaries laid the foundation of this Dravidian movement. They very well knew that its impossible to subjugate India as long as the Hindu spirit is there , so missionaries were sent to Tamil Nadu and break the Hindu spirit and destroy Hindu Culture.
2. Christian missionaries started to establish their bases slowly but steadily, in the guise of trade. The dutch established their trading bases in the following places

1609 Palaverkadu (pulickat lake) 60 kms north of Chennai
1647 In Sathurangapattinam
1660 in Nagapattinam
