This move is not just uncalled for but also highly prodigal. It also goes against the spirit of inclusiveness propagated by the Constitution (“Spat over Hindi as official language at UN”, Jan. 4). Such narrow-minded debates can belittle India’s nobler causes at the UN. New Delhi has greater goals to pursue in the areas of climate change, nuclear power, trade, and agriculture than debate on what language should be be made the country’s official language at the UN.
