In the northeastern states, the voices of protest have once again started rising in the northeastern states regarding the compulsion of the Hindi language till class 10th. The North East Student Organization (NESO) has expressed displeasure in this regard by writing a letter to the Central Government. Also demanded to withdraw the decision. The student organization says that this will increase discrimination against other Indian languages. The North East Student Organization (NESO) is a group of eight student organizations from the northeastern states.
Demand to withdraw the decision from the Union Home Minister
In a letter to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, the North East Student Organization has demanded that this impractical decision be withdrawn immediately. Also suggests that Indian regional languages ​​should be made compulsory up to class 10th based on locality in the respective states. Whereas Hindi should be kept as an optional and elective subject. Earlier, the Union Home Minister had said that on April 7, 2022, in the meeting of the Parliamentary Committee on Official Language in New Delhi, all the North Eastern States have agreed to make Hindi compulsory in schools up to class 10th.
Claim: Hindi is the mother tongue of only 40 to 43 percent of the people
North East Student Organization said it is understood that Hindi is the mother tongue for about 40 to 43 percent of the people in the country. It is worth noting here that the country has a plethora of speakers of other native languages. All those regional languages ​​are also rich, thriving, and vibrant in their outlook. It is because of these that India realizes the image of a diverse and multilingual nation.
The decision will be harmful to the regional languages.
Groups of other organizations including the All Assam Students Union, Naga Students Federation, Manipur Students Union, and All Arunachal Pradesh Students Union said each state in the northeast has its own unique and diverse languages, spoken by different ethnic groups, including Indo- From Aryan to Tibeto-Burman to Austro-Asiatic families. The introduction of Hindi as a compulsory subject in this area would not only be detrimental to the propagation of regional languages but would also be detrimental to the students whose syllabus would be added to another compulsory subject.
Attention should be given to the upliftment of regional languages ​​of the Northeast
The letter, signed by North East Student Organization president Samuel B Jirwa and general secretary Sinam Prakash Singh, said such a move would not promote unity but would create apprehension and disharmony. NESO is against this policy and will continue to oppose it. Neso said the Center should, instead, focus on the upliftment of regional languages ​​of the Northeast, such as their inclusion in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution, and take steps to facilitate more schemes for their development and progress.
