Former Union Minister P Chidambaram criticizes the government's use of Hindi words in English bill titles, saying it's an "affront to non-Hindi speaking people". The practice, he argues, creates problems for non-Hindi speaking states and may break the promise of English remaining an associate official language. The government has introduced several bills with Hindi titles, including the Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan Bill and the Sustainable Harnessing and Advancement of Nuclear Energy for Transforming India Bill.
