The Indian constitution, adopted in 1950, declares Hindi shall be written in

the Devanagari script and will be the official language of the Federal Government
of India.

However, English continues to be used as an official language along
with Hindi. Hindi is also enumerated as one of the twenty-two languages of the
Eighth Schedule of the Constitution of India, which entitles it to representation on
the Official Language Commission.

The Constitution of India has effectively
instituted the usage of Hindi and English as the two languages of communication
for the Union Government. Most government documentation is prepared in three
languages: English, Hindi, and the primary official language of the local state, if it
is not Hindi or English.
