💨 Abstract

The Indian government has granted classical language status to Marathi, along with four other languages (Pali, Prakrit, Assamese, and Bengali), ahead of the Maharashtra Assembly elections. This decision fulfills a long-standing demand from various state sectors. The prime minister, Narendra Modi, welcomed this move, stating that it recognizes Marathi's significant cultural contributions to India's history.
