:-
Law-making and law interpretations required amount of prisons and several expressions and words or acquire a certain definite meaning and until we reach that stage regard to the Hindi language and I don’t think presenting the Hindi language is any numeric my feeling is that the English language is still from of bed and last an interpretation of such law and not longer than 15 years.
Shankar deo of Bombay warned that the cry, namely, ‘one culture’ has dangerous implications, and the very word ‘culture’ was dangerous. The Chief of the RSS Organisation appeals in the name of culture. Some Congressmen also appeal in the name of culture. Nobody tells us what exactly this word ‘culture’ means. Today, as it is interpreted and understood, it only means the domination of the few over the many… If you insist upon having one culture, then, to me it means the killing of the soul of India. India stood for Diversity, Deo said: That is our richness… If you mean by national language one language for the whole country, then I am against it.

He said the numbers of South have agreed to shallow 95% on the issue of national language and yet his counterpart from the North is not ready to balance and make compromises on the renaming 5%.
The numbers from South like Subramaniam and C. Rajagopalichari were facing is this resistance in their home state and many sensible members understood the gravity of the situation like Pandit Jawahar lal Nehru, Shankar Rao, and many more. They fear that this was no longer an issue of North v. South but many non-Hindi speaking states like Punjab and Bengal also found the principle of 1 nation and one language hard to shallow The Sikh community demanded Punjabi be declared as the official language of Punjab.
Reports of the language committee ;
The language committee of the constituent assembly suggested a compromise formula in it’s report . In order to resolve the deadlock over the issue of language, it advocated that hindi in Devanagri script should be the official language of the country. The language committee referred Hindi as the official language not the national language.
National language, instead of official language; Hindi vs languages such as Bengali, Telugu, Sanskrit, or Hindustani; Devanagari script vs the Roman script; the language to be used in the higher judiciary and Parliament; international numerals vs those in Devanagari script.
Conclusion:
In the end, given that the country had no shortage of challenges to confront, common sense prevailed, and things were left alone. And After several rounds of debate and negotiations, it was decided that Hindi will be the national language of India at the same time India will adopt the international form of numerals will English will be the second language and enjoy state on par with Hindi for the periods of 15 years.
