Re:India’s lost 220 languages in past 50 years by varunsrin on Sunday August 18, 2013 @04:08PM (#6234011)
This would be received very poorly by most of the sub-continent, and apart from being just controversial would be impossible to actually enforce.

Those familiar with the political tensions in the South (especially Tamil Nadu) between Dravidian Languages & Indo-Aryan, would point out that you'd have better luck getting them to switch to English than Hindi at this point.
