India is a country with much linguistic diversity and this diversity is not a problem but an important resource for us. An open attitude towards linguistic diversity helps us in maintaining this resource while narrow thinking causes damage. We must have a healthy and positive attitude towards all languages. Examples of both positive and negative attitudes towards linguistic diversity can be found in India, from its different parts and from different points of time. For example, there are 21 sub-castes in the Naga community and about the same numbers of languages are spoken in the community. People of a particular sub-group speak to the other members of their sub-group in their mother tongue. When people of one sub-group need to talk to people of the other sub-group they use Nagameez language and when they have to speak to people outside their community (i.e. people outside Nagaland and Manipur) they use Hindi and English. This is an example of the positive attitude that Naga people have towards linguistic diversity and this is what makes them multilingual. On the other hand, residents of Goa keep fighting over the existence of Marathi and Konkani. Similarly, residents of Belgaon in Karnataka are arguing over the existence of Kannada and Marathi Hence, we conclude that Naga people of the same subgroup speak to each other in their mother tongue, while they use Nagamez when talking to someone outside their community.
