Union Home Minister Amit Shah tweeted, "Hindi, India's national language, knits the country together in a thread of unity.
Digital Desk: Amit Shah, the Union Home Minister, pointed out the importance of the Hindu language in "unifying" the country on the occasion of Hindi Diwas on Wednesday. The home minister declared that the Modi administration was dedicated to the advancement of Hindi and all regional Indian languages.
On Wednesday morning, Shah tweeted, "India's official language Hindi links the nation in a thread of oneness." All Indian languages have Hindi as a friend.
Shah stated in a speech given on the occasion of Hindi Diwas that while every Indian language has a distinctive past, Hindi has a unique space in the public imagination. He explained: "This is because numerous liberation warriors emphasized the significance of Hindi to speed India's road to independence during the freedom struggle, notably Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Patel, Vinoba Bhave, and Jawaharlal Nehru.
Shah will take part in the All India Official Language Conference in Surat, Gujarat, later today.
In the meantime, Prime Minister Narendra Modi claimed on Wednesday that Hindi has brought India great honor on the international stage and that people are constantly drawn to its simplicity and compassion.
In a tweet on Hindi Diwas, Modi sent his sincere gratitude to everyone who has worked tirelessly to improve the nation's most widely spoken language.
The Constituent Assembly designated Hindi, written in the Devanagari script, as India's official language on September 14, 1949. Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first prime minister, proclaimed the day to be Hindi Diwas to commemorate the important occasion.
On January 26, 1950, the Constitution was amended to codify the Constituent Assembly's decision.
Every year, September 14 is recognized as Hindi Diwas. For more than 130 billion Indians, Hindi is more than just a language; it also serves as a symbol of national identity. Hindi was adopted as India's national language on September 14, 1950. Article 343 of the Constitution states that "Hindi in the Devanagari script shall be the official language of the Union." Since then, India has celebrated September 14 as Hindi Diwas.
