Pritish Nandy Sahab, Salaam Vaalequm.

Suna aap kaafi naraaz hain Hindi se. Kahin aapko ek nayi bhasha mili, khoobsurat lagi, aur aapko yaad aaya, "Arrey, yeh meri rashtriya bhasha kyun nahin."

Jaagruk naagrik hain aap. Baat baat par desh ki identity ki yaad aa jaati hai aapko.

Jaagruk hone ke saath saath thode padhe likhe bhi hote, toh jaante kuch zaroori baatein.

Duniya mein kam se kam ek hazaar 'base' rang hain. Unmein se kai aapko desh ke alag alag raajyon ki yaad dilaayenge. Saare ke saare daal den National Flag par?

Kuch lakh kism ki jaanwaron ki prajaatiyaan hain. Bana den sabko national animal?

Har teesra bhartiya kaam chalau gaana likh sakta hai. Aapke kisi non-Delhi (non-Hindi) rishtedaar se gaayki kara ke nayi national anthem ho jaaye?

Zaroori nahin lagta? Kyun? Kyunki in cheezon ka Dilli se koi talluk nahin? Inke rashtriya symbol hone mein Dilli ki taaqat nahin badhti?

Jin North East ki ek aadha darzan bhashaaon ki jaankaari aapne di, voh maine pehli baar suni. Poora yakeen hai hummein se kaion ne nahin suni hongi. Nayi rashtriya bhasha ki ghoshna karte waqt agar bhasha sikhaani bhi pade, toh thodi sharam ki baat hogi.

Aapke lekh mein in raajyon ki bhasha aur sanskriti ki guhaar dikhi. Lekin guhaar ka asli kaaran lupt hoti sanskriti nahin, Hindi ke khilaaf morcha laga. Sanskriti bachaane ke liye Hindi ka khaatma kyun? Hindi ki vajah se North East ki apni language nahin bach pa rahin? Kyun? Aapko lagta hai vahan paida hone vaale bachche ek se zyaada bhasha paal nahin paayenge? Sahab, apni IQ ko dimaag mein rakh kar sabke liye decide toh aap kar rahe hain, par mujhe nahin lagta bhagwaan ek hi galti baar baar dohraata hoga.

Hindi se dikkat hai aapko? Saalon se rashtriya bhasha bani is language ka haal bataun main aapko? Yeh lekh angrezi ki sahaayta, roman mein likh raha hun main. Kyunki Devnagari mein likhate hi aadhe padhne vaale padhenge nahin. Yeh haalat hai Hindi ki.

Agar aapka voh Kashmiri aur voh North Eastern Hindi jaanein, jaisa ki sanvidhaan unse asha rakhta hai, toh identity issues bahot kam ho jaayenge. Sawaal yeh hai ki Hindi kyun? Phir sawaal yeh bhi ki baaki 100-200 bhashaayen kyun nahin? Kuch teen chaar sadiyon mein toh hum sab ek bhasha mein baat karna seekh hi jaayenge. Hindi zyaadatar logon ko samajh aati hogi tabhi national language hai. Tabhi film banaate waqt aap zyaada se zyaada logon tak pahunchane ke liye isse chunate hain. Isse Dilli ki rakhel ki tarah na pesh karein.

National language 'all pervasive' nahin hogi toh aap aur hum honge?

Mujhe nahin lagta Hindi bolane vaale kisi bhi aadmi ko aapki in tamaam bhashaaon se koi dikkat hai. Mujhe nahin lagta hummein se koi bhi chahega ki desh ki koi bhi jama poonji samay ke saath gart mein chali jaaye. Lekin aapki Hindi ke liye nafrat, aur uska Dilli se koi ajeeb sa naata meri samajh ke bahar hai. Main UP se hun. Apne Dilli ke saat saalon mein mujhe nahin lagta iss shehar ke bahot log mujhse behtar Hindi bolate, likhate ya samajhate hain.

Aapka logic hai ki desh ki har sanskriti co-exist kare, aur iske liye aap Hindi ko mitaana chahte hain. Kya yakeen karun main aapka?

Kuch galat likha ho toh maaf kijiyega. Hindi bhashi aadmi hun, ho sakta hai aapke angrezi lekh ki gehraai na samajh paaya hun.

Par itna neeche shayad main kabhi gir bhi nahin sakta.
