Why does marathi need protection?
by mar gaya on May 04, 2008 12:44 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Can ghaatiis explain to me why their language is dying? Why does it need to be protected to survive? Is it because it is poor language with zero literature and limited vocabulary?

It was three language formula in the schools responsible for this.. Out of respect for national language successive government in Maharashtra gave high weightage to the teaching of Hindi to Marathi students..

Government of Maharashtra should make Marathi compulsory on the similar lines as Gujrati in Gujrat or Kannad in Karnataka and no less..
