Since post-partition/ post-independence days in India, there has been continuous attempts by north-Indian lobby, with aid and abetment of GoI, to coronate Hindi as the only official language as also the only representative language of India and Indians.
Learning Hindi in school days, makes a student's life hassle-free and easier when he has to migrate to other states for studies. Not all off-the-campus people know English or your mother tongue.
Do we once again fall into this trap and get divided or do we say enough and believe that we all are Indians and the division is only in the eyes of those liberals who try to influence us?
