New Delhi: At a time when the language has been politicized, the incidents of people in many states are being attacked to not speak local language, the Supreme Court has said that the linguistic diversity of India should be celebrated and it should not be made the cause of divides. It said that language was not related to any religion and Urdu was as Indian language as Hindi and Marathi, the report of Amit Anand Chaudhary. SC used Urdu on a signboard of Patur Municipal Council in Akola district of Maharashtra, along with Marathi.
Tea he said that there was a misunderstanding that Urdu was a foreigner to India and saw that there was “pathetic” to consider Hindi as the language of Hindus and Muslims, a trick used by colonial powers to divide the country. “Prejudice against Urdu stems from the misunderstanding that Urdu is foreign to India. This opinion is afraid, as Marathi and Hindi like Urdu, wrong, is an Indorearin language. It is an Indorean language. It is an language that was born in this land. The language of preference and many acclaimed poets became the language of choice,” Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia and Kin Vinod Chandra said.
“Language is not religion. Language also does not represent religion. The language is related to a community, for a region, not for people, and not for a religion. Language is the culture. Language is a yardstick for measuring a community and its decent march. So it is a matter of Urdu, which is the best sample of Ganga-Jamuni Tehbase. The middle India,” said.
Given that a petitioner fought a legal battle against Urdu for the last five years before Bombay HC and SC, the court said that the petitioner’s misunderstanding on the language issue should be addressed as many others may have the same feeling. The court said that language was a medium for the exchange of ideas that people brought people close to diverse ideas and beliefs and it should not cause their division.
The bench said that even today, Hindi used by common people was full of Urdu words, even if no one knows about it. “It would not be wrong to say that without using the words or words obtained from Urdu, one day conversation cannot happen in Hindi. The word ‘Hindi’ itself comes from the Persian word ‘Hindavi’. This exchange of workbulary flows both ways because Urdu has many words from other Indian languages, including Sanskrit.” The court said that according to Urdu and Hindi linguists and literary scholars, there were no two languages and if Urdu was criticized, it was also a kind of Hindi criticism. It expressed concern over the deteriorating Indian language, which is a mixture of different languages Hindi and Urdu,
“This is not an opportunity to discuss a detailed discussion on the rise and fall of Urdu, but it can be said that this fusion of Hindi and Urdu was met on a road in the form of both sides and Puritons in the form of Puritons and became more Persian. Muslims, which are a pathetic point of unity;” We must be respected and respected in our diversity. There are more than 100 major languages in India, “said. The court said that if people or a group of people living within the area covered by Petar Municipal Council were familiar with Urdu, there should be no objection if Urdu was used in addition to the official language, that is, Marathi, at least on the city council signboard.
