India in Pixels by Ashris's video: Top 20 Indian Scheduled Languages Ranked By Speakers 1961 - 2031

It must be common knowledge by now that Hindi is not the national language of India. No language is the national language for that matter. Hindi and English, however, are official languages of the Union of India used to conduct administrative tasks related to the government. In addition to the official languages Hindi and English, the constitution recognizes 22 regional languages, which includes Hindi but not English, as scheduled languages. The number of native Hindi speakers is about 25% of the total Indian population; however, including dialects of Hindi termed as Hindi languages, the total is around 44% of Indians, mostly accounted from the states falling under the Hindi belt. This video shows how the number of speakers who use a language as their mother tongue has changed from 1961 to 2031. Everything after 2011 is a projection.
