Hindi must get official language status at UN, Rajnath BHOPAL: Union home minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday pushed for making Hindi one of the official languages of the United Nations as he lamented that Hindi could not get its desired place in India probably due to regional politics. "Hindi should be made one of the official languages of the UN. When the International Yoga Day can be held on June 21 following the mandate of 177 nations, why can't Hindi language become one of the official languages of the UN? We should make efforts to achieve this goal," Singh said in his concluding address of the three-day World Hindi Conference. The next edition of the mega event will be held in 2018 in Mauritius, which has a large population of India-origin people.
