Q45 (CISF/2024) Polity & Governance › Constitutional Basics & Evolution

Which one of the following languages is not included in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution of India?

Explanation

The Eighth Schedule of the Constitution of India lists the official languages of the Republic of India. Currently, it consists of 22 languages. These are: Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Kashmiri, Konkani, Malayalam, Manipuri, Marathi, Nepali, Odia, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Sindhi, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu, Bodo, Santhali, Maithili, and Dogri.

  • Bodo, Maithili, and Santhali (along with Dogri) were added to the Eighth Schedule by the 92nd Amendment Act of 2003.
  • Ladakhi is not included in the Eighth Schedule. There have been persistent demands from the people and administration of the Union Territory of Ladakh to include the Bhoti/Ladakhi language in the schedule, but it has not been officially added yet.
