The most important is the Hindustani (Hindi and Urdu, about 240 million people). They were brought into India from the northwest during the second millennium B.C., the Indo-Aryan tongues spread throughout the north, gradually displacing the earlier languages of the area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Dravidian languages<\/strong> spoken by 24% of the population. Most Dravidian speakers reside in South India, where Indo-Aryan influence was less extensive than in the north. Only a few isolated groups of Dravidian speakers, such as the Gonds in Madhya Pradesh and Orissa, and the Kurukhs in Madhya Pradesh and Bihar, remain in the north as representatives of the Dravidian speakers who presumably once dominated much more of South Asia. The most commonly used Dravidian languages are Telugu (Andhra Pradesh), Tamil (Tamil Nadu), Malayalam (Kerala) and Kannada (Karnataka).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The others languages, around 2% of the population, are the Sino-Tibetan and Austroasiatic languages mostly spoken by tribal people. <\/strong>Sino-Tibetan speakers live along the Himalayan fringe from Jammu and Kashmir to eastern Assam. The Austroasiatic languages are spoken by groups of tribal people from West Bengal through Bihar and Orissa and into Madhya Pradesh.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-31817 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wc17_languageindiam.jpg\" alt=\"languages of india\" width=\"865\" height=\"591\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wc17_languageindiam.jpg 865w, https:\/\/magikindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wc17_languageindiam-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/magikindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wc17_languageindiam-600x410.jpg 600w, https:\/\/magikindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/wc17_languageindiam-720x492.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 865px) 100vw, 865px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>In addition, the Government of India has awarded the distinction of classical language<\/strong> to Tamil, Sanskrit, Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam and Odiya.<\/p>\n<p><strong>As a former colonial language, English serves as the lingua franca in India.<\/strong> It is used by many authors and is a major administrative language.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Constitution of India does not give any language the status of national language.<\/strong>The official language of the Union Government of the Republic of India is Hindi in the Devanagari script (alphabet of India and Nepal).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Constitution of India recognizes 22 languages:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Assamese (Assam, Arunachal Pradesh)<\/li>\n<li>Bengali (<a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/west-bengal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">West Bengal<\/a>, Tripura, Assam, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Jharkhand)<\/li>\n<li>Bodo, sino-tibetan (Assam, West Bengal, Meghalaya)<\/li>\n<li>Dogri (<a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/jammu-kashmir\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jammu &amp; Kashmir<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Gujarati (Gujarat, Dadra &amp; Nagar Haveli et de Daman &amp; Diu)<\/li>\n<li>Hindi (Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Bihar, <a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/chhattisgarh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chhattisgarh<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/new-delhi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Delhi<\/a>, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, <a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/madhya-pradesh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Madhya Pradesh<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/uttar-pradesh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Uttar Pradesh,<\/a> Haryana, <a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/rajasthan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rajasthan<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/uttarakhand\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Uttarakhand<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>Kannada (<a href=\"https:\/\/magikindia.com\/en\/karnataka\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Karnataka<\/a>, Goa.
