Amit Shah to launch ‘Bharatiya Bhasha Anubhag’ for instant regional language translation | India News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: Home minister Amit Shah will launch the ‘Bharatiya Bhasha Anubhag‘, a special initiative of the department of official language under the ministry of home affairs, at the 4th Akhil Bharatiya Rajbhasha Sammelan here on Saturday, enabling instant translation of official communication between the Centre and the states, from Hindi or English to regional language of the relevant state and vice versa.
“Just like Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s speeches in (non-Hindi speaking) states get instantly translated and can be heard by the public in their respective regional language, the ‘Bharatiya Bhasha Anubhag’, in collaboration with Centre for Deployment of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), will put in place a universal translation system for official communication. For instance, if the chief minister of Tamil Nadu writes a letter to the Centre in Tamil, the Union minister here can read it in his language and have the reply sent in Tamil. This will help bring the regional languages on to the centre-stage,” secretary in department of official language Anshuli Arya told a press conference here on Friday.
Arya added that the recommendations of the parliamentary committee on official language — contained in 12 reports, three of which are pending with the President of India — will, as per the procedure, be forwarded to the ministries concerned and after their comments are received, a considered decision will be taken on the way forward. She said all the recommendations are designed to uphold India’s composite culture and lay emphasis on adopting a persuasive or motivational approach, rather than a punitive approach, towards promoting the official language. It was with this spirit that the department of personnel and training (DoPT) had turned down the parliamentary panel’s recommendation to record adverse comments in annual confidential report (ACR) of officers who failed to meet targets for official communication in Hindi, informed Arya.
Shah, who will address the inaugural session of official language’s diamond jubilee celebrations and 4th Akhil Bharatiya Rajbhasha Sammelan here on Friday, will also launch the diamond jubilee special issue of ‘Rajbhasha Bharti’ magazine, besides releasing a commemorative postage stamp and coin, said a home ministry release.
He will present the ‘Rajbhasha Gaurav’ and ‘Rajbhasha Kirti’ awards on the occasion.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been constantly emphasising on the development of Hindi and Indian languages and better coordination between them, the MHA release said.
The home minister had conceptualised organising Hindi Diwas on a large scale in various cities in 2019. Varanasi had hosted Hindi Diwas and the first Akhil Bharatiya Rajbhasha Sammelan in 2021, followed by Surat in 2022 and Pune in 2023.
During the two-day conference starting here on Saturday, an in-depth discussion will be held on the progress of Hindi as an official language, public language and contact language in the last 75 years. Additionally, there will be discussion on ‘India’s cultural heritage and Hindi’ and a session on three newly launched criminal laws — Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita 2023, Bharatiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita 2023 and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam 2023.
