Does speaking a particular language other than mother tongue add charm to your personality? If the language is English, it certainly does up to some extent in the Indian domain. Right now English has become so rooted in India that if you can\u2019t speak or understand English fairly, your\nchances of getting succeeded are quite less.<\/p>The credit goes to British rule in India, English came to India with colonisation, after the establishment of their rule, they started teaching English language through Christian missionaries. This was the very first effort on their part to make it a second language of India after Hindi. Hindi is spoken by 40% population of India and English being the second language is spoken by 12.10% people as per the census 2001. The current percentage will be much higher.  <\/p> <\/p>What makes English important in India:<\/b><\/p>Indian education system is such that from the very first class you have to learn English. Whether you like it or not that does not matter, If want a job then you gotta know English. For every competitive exam, be it for the corporate sector or government sector you need to know the language well. What makes Indian education system inefficient and ineffective is the undue importance given to English. All the official work is exercised in English and all the court hearing are held in English only.<\/p>What do I personally think about English in India:<\/b> <\/p>As protester of English I think that it is an attack on the Indian culture and our native languages are under threat.But fortunately native languages are always put above any other language. So it\u2019s not a threat to other languages. When you speak a foreign language it certainly gives some idea about your\nintelligence. It will certainly enhance your brain power. <\/p>Efforts have always been made to impose Hindi on all the people, that can\u2019t be the case in a diverse country like India. People have their own choices in a democratic country. They are free to speak the language of their choice. If I feel like to speak the English language then its no one\u2019s business to ask me to give preference to any other language. You have your own choices. Apart from making you analytically strong the English language has many other benefits too. It is an international language. If you know English well then you would be able to communicate to the world and you would get to know the recent international happenings.   <\/p>If you know English well then you will have access to all the greatest book of all time because most of them are in English.<\/span> <\/p>So speaking a foreign language has its own charm but the proper respect should be given to the native languages. We can\u2019t ignore them.<\/span> <\/p>If Hindi is our mother <\/u><\/i>then English can be treated as Wife and<\/u><\/i> we can love both simultaneously<\/u><\/i>.<\/i><\/u>\u2014 <\/i>Chetan Bhagat<\/b><\/i> <\/p>"}]
