RSS Joint General Secretary Arun Kumar has said that Hindi should gradually progress as the national language.
Speaking at a conference held in Mumbai yesterday, the RSS Joint General Secretary Arun Kumar said, “The current language disputes are unfortunate. Every state should develop its language and conduct its business in that particular language. There is no regional language in India. All languages are national languages. We have an administrative system. We need a common national language. At one time, it was Sanskrit, but today that is not possible. So what can be now, it can be Hindi today. If you do not like Hindi, you should have a national language. English cannot be the common national language. It will be a foreign language.
According to RSS founder M.S. Golwalkar, if English is made a common national language, the existence of state languages will be in danger. Hindi should gradually progress to become a common national language. That process should be natural. There is no need to worry about those who oppose Hindi for selfish reasons.
In Tamil Nadu, which opposes Hindi, lakhs of people are doing certificate courses in Hindi. So there is no need to worry about that,” he said.
