Rajasthani, Bhojpuri languages to get official status
Union Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal on Wednesday said that three languages, including Rajasthani and Bhojpuri, would soon be given official recognition under the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution. Last year, Rajasthan CM Vasundhara Raje had flagged off a “Rajasthani Rath Yatra”, demanding official status for Rajasthani. As of now, 22 languages are recognised under Eighth Schedule of Constitution.
