Meerut, September 14 (HS). Chaudhary Charan Singh University's Political Science Professor Sanjeev Sharma said that language carries its own culture, conduct and behaviour. It is not right to tamper with the culture of any language in the name of simplicity. In the name of mother tongue, Hindi is used freely. We should be aware of the purity of Hindi. There was no conflict between languages in ancient India. Europe's concept is based on linguistic conflict but not India's. In normal life, we should sign our names in Hindi only, this determines our identity and Hindi gets pride as a mother tongue.
On Hindi Diwas, a seminar was organized on the topic of Official Language Hindi: Technology and Translation in the Hindi and Modern Language Department of Chaudhary Charan Singh University on Saturday. Chief Guest Prof. Kumud Sharma said that languages do not have silos. Before independence, all freedom fighters unanimously adopted Hindi, but when it became the official language, this issue became a matter of protest and the language took many forms like official language, contact language, national language etc. The result of this protest was that 15 years of Hindi training time was given to Hindi. That became the biggest obstacle for Hindi. Later, even Hindi speakers could not recognize Hindi. The media has run with the power and capability of Hindi. With the advent of technology, new areas of employment have been created in Hindi.
State Information Commissioner Rajendra Singh said that language has been the main basis of development of human civilization. Hindi speakers have the largest population in India. Development of any language is linked to employment opportunities in it and Hindi has ample opportunities for this. Dr. Amarnath Amar said that Hindi has many forms, Hindi is used in many forms in literature reading, media and in practice.
