Even I think Hindi articles at least should be allowed as Boddunan is an Indian site meant for Indians so I don't think there is any problem with it. But you may make a rule of getiing less CC for Hindi articles. :blink:

Very interesting verdict of Gujarat high court, in the constitution, Hindi was declared as an official language and not a national language.

Exactly ! Many people are somehow under the impression that Hindi is the national language which is not true ! In the southern parts of India people know very little hindi..

It is also being taught in schools wrongly that Hindi is the national language. Actually Hindi is only the official language in certain states and not all. Each state has its own regional language as working language in addition to English.

As regards states, I may mention that there is one state- Nagaland- that has English as official language.

All south Indian states have their own languages officiall anguage Kannada in Karnataka, Tamil in Tamilnadu, Malayalam in Kerala and Telugu in Andhra Pradesh...

But still I feel in most of the parts in India people know to read and write Hindi so one expect to have a permission to write Hindi articles on an Indian site. Any ways but rules are rules. :)

Besides it is the only language that people from allover the country use as contact language, however broken, but it works.

I beg to differ here, Hindi in its different forms and dialects is spoken by almost 80 crore people in India while people who know to speak English would number less than 40 crores.

I agree with you. I often go to Pondycherry in Tamilnadu. There I could manage with only Hindi. When it comes to communication. Hindi serves the purpose well.

I am a Punjabi but can speak Hindi well because I was brought up in UP mostly. I have traveled allover the country for different purposes and found if one knows Hindi he can survive in almost every nook and corner of India without a problem. Although some people do not know Hindi in South or eastern sector but someone near them can solve the problem by helping out.
