Hindi is spoken as a native language by 258 million people and is recognized as the 2nd largest language in the world. Hindi Divas is celebrated on 14th September because on this day in 1949, the Constituent Assembly of India had adopted Hindi written in Devanagari script as the official language of the Republic of India. The decision of using Hindi as the official language was ratified by the Constitution of India that came into effect on 26 January 1950. Under the Article 343 of the Indian Constitution, Hindi written in Devanagri script was adopted as the official language. Now there are 22 Official languages in India.
