The official language of the Government of India is

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option C
The official language of the Government of India is Hindi. Article 343 (1) of the Constitution of India states "The Official Language of the Union government shall be Hindi in Devanagari script." Unless Parliament decided otherwise, the use of English for official purposes was to cease 15 years after the constitution came into effect, i.e. on 26 January 1965.

According to the Official Language Act, 1963 English is also still the official language of India. So both Hindi as well as English is the official language of India.
