In a country that boasts of over a hundred languages and dialects, Hindi is certainly the most spoken understood of all. It is not the national language; yet the entire world celebrating Hindi Day is special for India, and its people.
Every year, January 10 is observed as World Hindi Day. It has been a practice since 2006. The day marks the anniversary of first World Hindi Conference, held in 1975. The first conference was inaugurated by the then prime minister of India, Indira Gandhi.

p.s. Okay! We get the irony that you are reading all this in English. But, life.
