Dogri, Bodo, Maithili and Santhali
Understanding the 8th Schedule Languages
The 8th Schedule of the Indian Constitution lists the official languages recognized by the Republic of India.
Certain languages were added to this schedule over time through constitutional amendments to ensure their recognition and promotion.
Languages Added in 2003
The 92nd Amendment Act, 2003, specifically added a set of four significant languages to the 8th Schedule. These languages are:
- Dogri
- Bodo
- Maithili
- Santhali
Identifying the Correct Set
Comparing the options provided with the languages added by the 92nd Amendment Act:
- Option 1 correctly lists Dogri, Bodo, Maithili and Santhali.
- Option 2 includes 'Bantu', which is not an Indian language recognized in the 8th Schedule.
- Option 3 includes 'Mizo' and 'Bhojpuri'. While Mizo is in the 8th Schedule, Bhojpuri is not.
- Option 4 includes 'Bhojpuri', 'Magahi', and 'Angika', none of which are currently in the 8th Schedule.
Therefore, the set containing Dogri, Bodo, Maithili and Santhali represents the languages added together to the 8th Schedule of the Indian Constitution.
