Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu on Friday termed the English language a ‘disease’ left behind by the British, stressing that Hindi was the symbol of “socio-political and linguistic unity” in India. He also said that not enough was being done to promote the Indian language. Now, Interestingly, in the same meeting the assembly also adopted English as an official language . I wonder how the Vice President Venkaiah Naidu use words like electricity, internet, mobile phones ....he cant use english , because english is a disease.
