National language of India is 'unity in diversity', says DMK MP Kanimozhi in Spain

New Delhi:

DMK MP Kanimozhi Karunanidhi, who is leading an all-party delegation to Spain as part of India’s global outreach after Operation Sindoor, made a strong statement about the idea of national identity while addressing the Indian diaspora in Madrid.

When asked about the national language of India, the Thoothukudi MP responded by underlining the essence of the Indian Union’s linguistic and cultural diversity.

“The national language of India is unity and diversity. That is the message this delegation brings to the world, and that is the most important thing today,” she said, drawing applause from the audience.

 

Kanimozhi’s emphasis on “unity in diversity” is in line with India’s long-standing constitutional framework that does not designate any one language as the "national language" but recognises 22 official languages under the Eighth Schedule.
