Mahagathbandhan demands 'official language' status for Bhojpuri in Bihar

The movement to grant official language status to Bhojpuri, widely spoken in Bihar, has gained traction. Mahagathbandhan leaders will raise the issue in Parliament. The push follows the Union Cabinet's decision to give classical language status to other languages. The Mahagathbandhan accuses the NDA government of neglecting Bhojpuri speakers.
