]]> Hindi Symbolises India’s Confidence, and LG Kavinder Gupta believes this growing linguistic pride reflects India’s cultural strength. Speaking in New Delhi, he said Hindi now represents India’s rising global confidence and cultural unity.

At the international conference on Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, held at Vigyan Bhawan, scholars, academicians, writers, and administrators explored the leader’s philosophy and legacy. The event celebrated his 110th birth anniversary and highlighted the importance of cultural identity in modern India.

LG Kavinder Gupta stressed that Hindi Symbolises India’s Confidence because it connects diverse communities emotionally and historically. He noted that more young Indians want to study, speak, and work in Hindi, which signals renewed national pride.

He praised the Vishwa Hindi Parishad and ICPR for promoting Hindi through research, dialogue, and global participation. He also appreciated the enthusiasm for Hindi among Ladakh’s youth, explaining that Ladakh’s multilingual character enriches India’s cultural landscape.

The Lieutenant Governor credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi for giving Hindi global visibility through international speeches. He encouraged students to stay rooted in cultural values while embracing innovation and global opportunities.

The conference featured book releases, a documentary screening, and interactions with leading thinkers who discussed nationalism, humanism, and India’s civilizational vision.

]]> In the ongoing Bihar elections, the RJD has strongly raised the Mithila turban issue, turning it into an emotional and cultural debate. The party said the turban is not just a piece of cloth but a proud symbol of Mithila’s honor, culture, and identity. RJD leaders took to social media, expressing that disrespecting the turban hurts the dignity of the entire community.

The controversy began after a rally where BJP’s Alinagar candidate and folk singer Maithili Thakur appeared wearing a turban. RJD accused BJP MLA Ketki Singh and Thakur of showing disregard for Mithila traditions. The Mithila turban issue soon went viral, with videos of Thakur wearing the turban while eating makhana spreading widely online.

According to RJD, the turban carries the same respect as a king’s crown. Dismissing it as inferior to others insults the entire Mithila culture. The party appealed to all to maintain the dignity of this traditional symbol, which represents self-respect, heritage, and pride.
