Anti-Hindi movement re-surfaces in Bengal, leader says BJP’s rise a threat to regional languages

Still world knows Bengali's because of Bengali's from West Bengal.
Still getting a job in West Bengal needs mandatory knowledge of Bengali with proficiency in writing. Exceptions are there in IT and some of the global conglomerates.

Most non Bengalis has adapted the language in some form or other.

Languages grow, rise and die. It is common all over the world. There is no need of protectionism for Bengali.

Only where I see problem is imposing it to others. Like in your case Urdu.

I protest the imposition of Hindi to non Hindi states, like exams where Hindi is the only vernacular language. This needs to go. We are one nation, one people.

I studied ICSE.

Hindi was not a choice subject.Sanskrit was there till 7th std.

Unless you plan to stay in West Bengal all your life, it would be helpful to know Hindi.

Cheers, Doc

Who told I stay all my life in West Bengal. I was in Delhi for 3 years and around 8 years in Hyderabad.
Now has base location in Kolkata but travelling around the world and India.

Bengalis can understand, speak Hindi because of the proximity between the languages.

But not allowing them to use their mother tongue in a career defining exam is too much. Instead the native hindi speakers getting the undue advantage. I do have many more examples like this.

Anyway my point is govt shouldn't discriminate in a diverse linguistic country like India.
 
My point is West Bengal should separate from H-India and become an Indep country. Hold a referendum in the state now
 
Non H-Indians should by now know that when it comes to oppressing Non H-Indians , the whole of North cow belt, whether BJP or Congress, Right Wingers or Left Wingers, Hindu or Muslim, Jains or Parsi, Savarna or OBC, - they all are the same. They all believe in Hindi and their Hindustan narrative.

I agree with you.

All education at the graduate and postgraduate levels, at least in science and technology, should only be in English.

Bengalis have themselves to be blamed, early 19th century , Bengali intellectuals advocated the adoption of Hindi as national language

There is not any movement like this. Even the illegal Bangladeshis will vote for unified country with India.
