Which of the following statements are true? Hindi written in Devanagari script with the Devanagari form of numerals can be used as an official language of the Union. The proceedings of the Supreme Court are to be carried out in English only not in Hindi.  58th amendment act inserted provision regarding the authoritative text of the constitution in the Hindi language.   Correct Answer Statement (ii) and (iii) is true.

The correct answer is  Statement (ii) and (iii) is true.​

  • Part XVII of the constitution deals with the official language in Articles 343 to 351.
  • Hindi written in Devanagari script can be used as the official language of the Union. But the form of numerals to be used for the official purposes of the Union should be the international form of Indian numerals and not the Devanagari form of numerals. Hence Statement (i) is false.
  • The Supreme Court hears only those who petition or appeal in English and all the proceedings of the Supreme court are done in English only. But High court uses all the official languages as per state. Hence Statement (ii) is true.
  • Originally, the Constitution of India did not make any provision with respect to an authoritative text of the Constitution in the Hindi language but, in the 58th Constitutional Amendment Act of 1987 authoritative text of the constitution in the Hindi Language is published. Hence Statement (iii) is true.
