Consti-tuition - Episode 2: Language - Part 1

Meghnad explains the widespread use of Hindi and how it affects non-speakers.

Is Hindi our national language? Do we have a national language? The answer to both these questions is absolutely not. In this episode, the first part of the Language combo, Meghnad explains how Hindi turned into a language which is so widespread and used in India.

He also wonders out loud: what happens when a person doesn't understand Hindi or English? What all can she not do in a multilingual country like ours?

This is part one of two for Language. In the next episode, we talk about the other widely adapted and used language: English.
