Amit Shah Calls for Indian Languages to Unite Nation
Speaking at the golden jubilee celebration of the central government’s Official Language Department, Amit Shah stated that languages had previously been used to divide the nation, but such attempts had failed. According to a PTI report, he emphasised the need to align governance with national spirit, adding, “In the last few decades, language was used as a means to try to divide India.
