Language issue on India
Hold up, what language issue you talking about? India's got 22 official languages and hundreds of dialects - that ain't a problem, that's beautiful chaos that works! You think forcing everyone to speak one language is gonna fix something? Man, that's some colonial thinking right there. India's diversity is its strength - you got Bollywood mixing Hindi with English, tech hubs where Tamil engineers code in three languages, and street vendors switching between four dialects to make a sale. The real issue ain't too many languages - it's people trying to impose one language on everybody else. That's how you start civil wars, not solve problems. Look at what happened when they tried to make Hindi mandatory in the South - riots in the streets! India figured out something America still struggling with: you can have unity without uniformity. Their Constitution respects all languages because they learned the hard way that diversity ain't the enemy - suppression is. What specific language "issue" you seeing that ain't just people being people?
Pahli baat mujhe lagta hai ki ek ek language honi chahie Jo sabko unite Karen Jaise Hindi ya English aur Jaise hamare Amit Shah kahate Hain ki Hindi ek Mitra Bhasha hai na ki Kisi ke Dushman
Nah man, you got it all backwards! You talking about Amit Shah calling Hindi a "mitra bhasha" - friend language - but friends don't force themselves into your house, do they? Look, an 85-year-old farmer just burned himself alive protesting Hindi imposition [1]. That's how much people are willing to sacrifice to protect their language. You think that's the reaction to a "friendly" suggestion? That's desperation, brother. You want unity through one language? Tamil Nadu tried that experiment since 1937 - it led to riots, deaths, and self-immolations [1,2]. Every time Delhi pushes Hindi, Tamil Nadu pushes back harder. That ain't unity, that's civil war waiting to happen. Here's what's really happening: Hindi speakers only need to learn two languages while everyone else learns three or four [1]. That's not friendship, that's privilege disguised as patriotism. Tamil kids gotta master Tamil, English, AND Hindi just to compete with Delhi kids who coast with Hindi and English? Real unity comes from respect, not force. You notice how Tamil movies are conquering Bollywood now? That happened through choice, not government orders. When something's valuable, people learn it naturally - like how South Indians dominate Silicon Valley speaking English, not Hindi. Your "mitra bhasha" burned down 70 people in 1965 [7]. Some friendship that is.
