Our misleading Language narratives, Question of Punjabi,
Inclusivity & Connectivity in current times (Program with Shaqufta Gimmi)
It is high time to revisit our language narrative as well as to deconstruct our nation building concepts. It is not limited to State or the government but there is a need for supporters & workers linked with language movements that they too revisit their struggles and narratives.
Is there anything exists like civilized or uncivilized language?
are we a federal State or centralist cum unitary State?
To love with a language is important but is it essential to blame other languages or use hate speech?
Languages, unlike nationalisms or religions always bank on new words so we always witness an exchange that is oxygen for every language but nationalists often use languages as power tool.
Why mother tongue is essential in primary education?
Language is not merely a tool of education or communication but it is a resource of cultural history.
To use a language as medium of instruction or adopt it at State level, is a political question.
Linking languages with religions was a colonial twist and they played not only with languages, scripts but also with dialects. It altogether badly damaged our language debate.
Watch,listen and rethink
