Lol ... Hahha I Lmao after reading this !  :P :D

Hello Mr Munshi Sir... I agree that tamilnadu ppl have not accepted Hindi even as a language... I am sanjay from B'lore(capital of karnataka) . We have accepted hindi as a medium of communication in primary schools..I love hindi ,But Do you know wats happening in B'lore currently Sir? Hindi is literally killing Kannda Sir.. I mean no 1 is ready to speak in kannada in Blore (capital of the kanndingas) even if two persons are from B'lore.. A conversation between 2 B'lorians is in Hindi n not in Kannda..I am really ashamed for accepting hindi Sir.. Respected ppl from hindi speaking belt come here and stay for more than 10-15 years in Blore for their living and they do not learn 1 word in kannada n they expect us to spk in hindi ...What is this attitude Sir?? Mind you India is a union of states and We follow the principle of unity in diversity , we are not ment to be having the same mother tongue...n my mother tongue Kannada , a 2000 year old language is anyday greater and patriotic than a 200 year old hindi... its high time for the other state govt to ban the imposition of hindi and implemnt a rule stating that all the other state people who come here should start learning the respective regional language. With all the languages in India.. there should not be a national language n even if there is.. Hindi a 200 year old language , is definitely not fit to get the status of national language... I mean every regional language be it Marathi, bengali, Kannada(<3), telugu , tamil , is far more important than Hindi... Try to chage your mindset and come out your small shell to learn our history.. Have a nice day bbye... n BTW do not go to Mumbai or Blore with this mindset,... Raj thekray and KSR have started kicking all the Hindi speaking people.. beware !

Himanshu Pathak, Please note that National Language status should be given in our Constitution. Our Constitution doesn't recognize any of the languages as "National Language". Constitution says " Hindi and English is the Official Languages of the Union Govt". Hence, most of the southern states official documents  are both in English and Regional Languages, and not in Hindi.

A national language is a language (or language variant, i.e. dialect) which has some connection — de facto or de jure — with a people and perhaps by extension the territory they occupy. The term is used variously. A national language may for instance represent the national identity of a nation or country. National language may alternatively be a designation given to one or more languages spoken as first languages in the territory of a country.

C.M.B. Brann, with particular reference to Africa, suggests that there are "four quite distinctive meanings" for national language in a polity

 "Territorial language" (chthonolect, sometimes known as chtonolect) of a particular people

 "Regional language" (choralect)

 "Language-in-common or community language" (demolect) used throughout a country

 "Central language" (politolect) used by government and perhaps having a symbolic value.

The last seems often to be given the title "official language."

Neither the Constitution of India nor Indian law specifies a National language. India specifies Hindi and English as official languages of the India de jure. Article 343 of the Constitution specifies that the Official Language of India is Hindi in Devanagari script. Article 354 states that a state of India may officially adopt one or more languages in use in the state or Hindi/English as the language or languages to be used for all or any of the official purposes of that state.

Section 8 of The Official Languages Act of 1963 (as amended in 1967) empowers the Union Government to make rules regarding the languages which may be used for the Official purposes of the Union, for transaction of business in Parliament, and for communication between the Union Government and the states.

Section 3 of G.S.R. 1052, titled "Rules, 1976 (As Amended, 1987, 2007, 2011)" specifies that communications from a Central (Union) Government office to a State or a Union Territory in shall, save in exceptional cases (Region "A") or shall ordinarily (Region "B"), be in Hindi, and if any communication is issued to any of them in English it shall be accompanied by a Hindi translation thereof.

Section 3 of G.S.R. 1052, titled "Rules, 1976 (As Amended, 1987, 2007, 2011) states Communications from a Central Government office to State or Union Territory in Region "C" or to any office (not being a Central Government office) or person in such State shall be in English. Region C covers regions other than those referred in Regions "A" and "B". Section 1 states that these rules shall extend to the whole of India, except the State of Tamil Nadu.

I beg to differ with your " almost 90 % people are speaking Hindi to communicate with other states in India" statement Sir.... Have you been to south India Sir?? Am from Bangalore . I bet English would be the link langauge in most of the south Indian states rather than hindi and more over most of the south indians surely know more than 3 or 4 south indian languages ( Telugu , Tamil . Kannada ),born and brought up in Banglore, I myslef can speak  and understand telugu , tamil perfectly  ..Only If a conversation involves a north Indian person then they would prefer to speak in Hindi to English .. But 90% is way tooo much sir... Can you give some stats to support your argument? :P  

Then Can English be the National language ????  Why Hindi??? The numbers of English understanding ppl can surely match with ppl understanding Hindi??? so Why HINDI??????? :P

yes there is one coin for all. IN rupee note IT was written in TAMIL also if it is not there the rupee is fake.

he issue of bifurcation and merger of the northern part of Kasaragod district (to the north of the Chandragiri river) with Karnataka, as recommended by the Justice Mahajan Commission as early as in 1968, was discussed in Lok Sabha elections in 2004. The bifurcation issue re-emerged when the Maharashtra Government put forth its demand to bifurcate and merge Belgaum and the neighbouring areas (now in Karnataka) with Maharashtra. The Vileeneekarana Kriya Samithi (VKS) in Kasargod had then urged Kannadigas to unite and take the issue to the apex court. Though considered a non-issue for the people of Kasaragod in general, the bifurcation scheme was important to the linguistic minorities, Tuluvas, Horanadu Kannadigas, Konkanis, Marathis, Beary, in the district, bordering Karnataka on its north and eastern boundary. The implementation of the Justice Mahajan Commission report that recommended the bifurcation of Kasaragod and merger of its northern part with Karnataka topped the agenda of the "Kasaragod Vileeneekarana Kriya Samithi" (Merger Action Council). The 2,500-member strong "Karnataka Samithi", the "Kannada Sahitya Parishad" and a section of the Horanadu Kannadigas have joined hands with the Vileeneekarana Kriya Samithi. The first official resolution demanding the bifurcation of Kasaragod district was moved and passed in the Kasaragod Municipal Council in 1956, then headed by Ramanna Rai

n the early 21st century, The Tulu Nadu movement again gained momentum in the region with support from notable Mangalorean poet Kayyara Kinyanna Rai and former Member of ParliamentRamanna Rai. In an interview, Kinyanna Rai said "political boundaries might not mean anything to people who were fighting for the survival of a language and its culture. Karnataka and Kerala governments spoke about "tier II cities" and the "Smart City" concept, but investment was not forthcoming". In an interview, Ramanna Rai said that "the work on the Mangalore-Bangalore railway line was completed after 35 years of its launch." He also said that " he would not accept the laying of a meter gauge line between the two cities and converting it into broad gauge as a development project particularly when there was no rail link for nine years."^[1]
