    i do not think language can keep us apart in anyway because we have numerous languages being spoken in india and yet we are together existing in harmony as one nation. the difference which one can notice is in culture and traditions of various groups of people in india, but language hardly matters.

    India is a diverse nation and has more than 1600 languages and Hindi is the national language. In my view language difference does not keep Indians apart. Every Indian either knows Hindi or English or even both and this unites the people of different languages. However, language has never been a hurdle for any Indian ever.

    I don't think that language difference keeps Indians apart. India is a land of diversities and one of the major diversity is language but language does not act as a barrier. Hindi is a language that is understood by every Indian and this acts as a mediator. Language in no way keeps Indians apart. English is another language that is widely spoken and is known by many so even this helps people come close to each other.

    In my view language can never be an issue that will keep Indians apart. Language of the heart that is feeling of affection and brotherhood for the fellow Indians is what keeps us united. Language is and will never be a barrier in keeping us united. Nevertheless, India is a diverse nation and several languages are spoken here but the difference in language has never kept Indians apart.

    With the advent of time and hyper paced globalization; regional languages will die out sooner than later. We have to embrace English as the link language because all computers are based on English. Reviving Indian languages can only be done at academic levels - viz. schools and universities. All this can be proven: Who speaks Latin or Sanskrit anymore? So, too much priority or adding nationalistic values to regional languages are bound to have an adverse effect on our economy. Some things have to be sacrificed for the faster development of our nation.
