The Lok Sabha Speaker highlighted that AI is being used to make Hindi literature and poetry accessible to everyone across the globe.

"Today, with the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the rich legacy of Hindi literature and poetry is available across the globe, he said, adding that Hindi has also been increasingly used in the fields of justice, administration, and internet technology," read an official statement by the Speaker's office.

"When we look at governance systems and democratic institutions around the world, the importance of Hindi in uniting India's diversity and enforcing its unity becomes evident," the speaker said according to the statement.

Birla also mentioned that during the preparation of India's Constitution, visionary leaders from various states, speaking different languages and dialects, recognized the importance of languages as symbols of unity. They acknowledged Hindi's inherent potential to unite the entire nation.

While mentioning how various Supreme Court judgements are also getting translated, he added, "Times have changed now. In the past, Supreme Court judgments were written in only one language. Now, the Supreme Court has also started translating judgments into multiple languages. In Parliament, we are using 22 Indian languages, which are the languages listed in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution. We are also extending translation facilities for members who want to speak in their own languages." (ANI)
