MisConceptions of Hindi Language

MisConceptions of Hindi Language

It's not about few factors; for an instance like,

This is not about politics.

This is not about Bhartiya Janta Party.

This is not about Congress Party.

This is not about Narendra Modi.

This is not about Rahul Gandhi.


Yesterday, I saw a 4 minutes video on Discovery channel (Youtube) where Bear Grylls was with India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his show “Man vs Wild”. (Though, I haven't seen the full episode on Discovery channel)

In the video, Bear Grylls was having a conversation with Narendra Modi.

He was talking in “English language

Narendra Modi was responding or giving replies in “Hindi language”.

After watching the video, I went to the comment section and to my surprise, few people had written many comments similar to “Oh! Prime minister of India and he doesn't know English. What a shame!”

Although, we have seen Narendra Modi speaking English in the past.

This is where we as Indians are going wrong.

Hindi is our native language, one of the official languages, still, we are ashamed of speaking Hindi?

Is English the criteria of being Intelligent or smart?

Are people speaking English superior to people speaking Hindi or other native state languages?

What misconception!

When Vladimir Putin (Russian president) speaks the Russian language between a group of other English speaking leaders, their citizens hail his speech/ oratory skills as he is not making his native language inferior and here we are judging people on the basis of English language.

We are adopting western culture at a pace which is leaving our native things way behind.

Hindi is the fourth most-spoken first language in the world and yet we are ashamed.

Please stop judging person's smartness and intelligence on the basis of Hindi language!
