Thank you sign it if you wanna help people know hindi language outside India.

Answer 1

The petition is factually incorrect.

Hindi is NOT the 2nd most spoken language in the world.

1.Mandarin Chinese
2.English
3.Spanish
4.Hindi

Hindi only beats Spanish if you include Urdu and lump it together as Hindustani.

Having said that, I do think it should be offered as an option, and so should Mandarin Chinese, as it is useful for the next generation in the West to be able to communicate with these huge emerging markets. It is less of an issue with India though as all those who have any influence or power in business, science or government speak English anyway.

Despite all that, I'm learning Hindi at the moment anyway...

And this question doesn't belong in Religion - it should be in Languages.
