Every year, September 14 is observed as the Hindi Diwas to mark the Constituent Assembly’s 1949 decision extending official language status to Hindi.

Home minister Amit Shah also tweeted urging the citizens of the country to promote and maximise the use of both their mother tongue and Hindi language so as to contribute to realizing Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s dream.

“We should introspect .There are many countries in this world whose languages have become extinct. The country that leaves its language loses its existence too. The country that loses its language can’t preserve its culture,” he was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
