Bhasha RAJ
Battle to get Rajasthani language into mainstream has intensified with RSS rooting for the cause. Sangeeta Pranvendra captures the mood building up in its support
The RSS resolution regarding promoting of local languages and dialects brings new lease of hope to those who have been campaigning for the recognition of Rajasthani language.
The resolution passed at the Akhil Bhartiya Pratinidhi Sabha (ABPS) of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) calls for promotion of local languages and dialects not just as carriers of culture, but also as the medium of education from primary to higher levels. It goes on to call upon governments and policy makers to work towards protecting the India languages.
This resolution gives solace and hope to many who feel that it will help to put an end to the raw deal being faced by Rajasthan. They further feel that with a BJP government at the centre, this suggestion by the RSS could further their cause of inclusion of Rajasthani in the 8th schedule of the Constitution.
