About "Language trouble in developing nations" topic:

With the decline of the Mughal Empire, India broke into fragments, and states were formed based on language and common culture backgrounds. And now India is the most diverse nation in the world, travel along the country each day or other you will find  yourselves in a new place altogether. And in a recent function where President Prathiba patil attended the Tamil language conference in Tamilnadu was speaking on tamil languages importance in India, and news media were already debating whether Hindi Language is making other languages in the country to loose its sheen.

And the National language Hindi is not spoken by all, and if you go to few states in south India or some place else they don't even want to conversate in hindi, even if they know they will not speak, and will speak in their local languages, much to the irk of others...And with more new states in demand, the problem will even get worse more. So, let us discuss regarding this Language problems in Developing nations.

I think Hindi was not totally sheen off the south Indian language but it became a par of our language like pareshaan, bindaas ,beta etc are mingling with our mother language except in case of tamil.
Ashfaq Shaikh  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  1 year ago
We are loosing our National spirit. We want to be recognised by our local language and culture instead of INDIANS we want to be called MARATHIS, MALYALIS, BENGALIS, KANNADIS, UDIYA, MADARSEES ETC. The political parties to gain local mileage are...

There is no harm in learning any number of languages provided they are fluent with their mother tongue first. Regards, Anna George. Web Analyst. Nichepro Technologies. Bangalore. http://www.nichesuite.com

In my view, English is as important as our mother tongue viceversa.English should be given very much importance but how much hindi is given, in the same way, is also should be considered by everyone in our country.  
Sarika Singh  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  2 years ago
Many of our leaders might not like it but the naked truth is that English is an international language spoken and understood throughout the world. The poor children should get equal opportunities and that can be achieved if they learn english...

This entirely depends on the one's own mentality. If a person is losing his/her mother tongue then that is due to their carelessness. When there are people who are losing their mother tongue then on the other side there are many people , who speak...

Manoj...... amazing debate....... Yes nowadays we are losing our mother tongue. Especially the children, they speak only English and hesitates to speak their mother tongue. This is all the parents fault who don't teach them their mother tongue....

Rohit Thakur  |  Supported idea  "Promote 'HINDI' as a compulsory subject in all the States"  |  1 year ago
Our Idea has to be in favour of our country and its people. 1 common language other than our local language will attach people from diferent parts of country. That is the reason i support promotion of HINDI language (majority spoken language).
Rathin Deb  |  Supported idea  "Replacing Hindi with Sanskrit"  |  1 year ago

Jiwa Mines Insights - Minerals are valuable natural resources being finite and non-renewable. They constitute the vital raw materials for many basic industries and are a major resource for development. The history of mineral extraction in India dates back to the days of the Harappan civilization. The wide availability of the minerals in the form of abundant rich reserves made it very conducive for the growth and development of the mining sector in India . The country is endowed with huge resources of many metallic and non-metallic minerals. Mining sector is an important segment of the Indian economy. Since independence, there has been a pronounced growth in the mineral production both in ter...

Yes, when you think you think in the language you are first accoustomed to when you were born. It is irrespective of the fact that it is your mother tongue or not. Similarly when one is thinking, you need your thoughts to relate to something and...

The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals. We are all familiar with a  Herd  of cows, a  Flock  of chickens, a  School  of fish and a  Gaggle  of geese. However, less widely known is a  Pride  of lions, a  Murder  of crows (as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens), an  Exaltation  of doves and, presumably, because they look so wise, a  Parliament  of owls. Now consider a gathering of Baboons. They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates.  And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons?  Believe it or not ....... a  Congress ! And, of course, the well known collective noun for a group of owls: PARLIAMENT! PS: Pl read it for fun only and without any political trappings. That's why I have put it in "OTHERS" category of Industry and not "POLITICS".

I found this while I was checking a friends blog and accidently bumped in to this..   Molestation is an ugly word. But still everyone needs to know what it is. Touching and exploiting someone sexually is molestation. A child should always be explained what is the difference between good and bad touch. Along with this if a child complains about a bad touch it should be taken seriously and a steps should be taken against this. Today I am saying this because I was a victim. A victim of child abuse, a victim of adolescent molestation and it continues. But I can proudly say that I had all the strength to fight this as an adolescent.  When I was a child I went to see a doctor , a skin specialist for something which had happened on my face. I realised that the behaviour of the doctor was weird and I was at first scared. Then I told my parents and they made me feel it was ok and they just did not complain about this anywhere. The only solution they came to was : not to take me to that...
