What is ideally better- to have one universal language (English or some other) oe having multitude of languages, as they today exist? Amitabh... IPS Officer

Amitabh, why one universal language..? the question is raised aiming the question of political governance & world trade, but the reality is different, languages are not mere communication tool as mostly defined by linguistics, language is sentimental, cultural, historical & emotional, when a person learns a language he learns the culture, history & society of the language associated with, British colonists & Christian missionaries learned Indian languages to captivate & govern people in the name of law & religion, they knew if they have to rule us first they should know our language. Our difference makes our might!!
