Konkani is dying …

Konkani is in very bad state , as unesco has mentioned 196 indian languages are endangered in India …hat means these languages are dying because people are not aware about their own mother tongue and even Indian government is not taking much care , for ex chattisgarhi , maithili, haryanvi , santali , bhojpuri , marwadi, garhwali , kumouni , dogri , awadhi and pahadi all are north Indian languages , thease speakers have started speaking in hindi and even they feel shy to speak their mother tongue . 

In same way in south India tulu and kodava people have started adopting kannada,. badaga , toda and kota people are adopting tamil this is because these laguages are not recognized and these languages are treated as tribal languages …

So if we take Konkani, its also in same condition bcoz konkan region is geographical distributed in different states , Konkanis in maharastra have adopted marathi and thet feel shy and low in the society if they speak their Konkani dialect like sangameshwari and malwani and they think by speaking marathi keep up their standard..

Language Is The Identity of Nation

Hi friends as you know our konkani language is in danger in Maharashtra. Many people adopting Marathi and dont aware that konkani is ther own language. First thing I want to clear that we are not against any language.  We will try to spread konkani with respect to other Indian languages. Don't keep any doubt about our mission. We are not here to demand separate konkani country. We are proud of our country. So please don't keep any misunderstanding about our mission. 

Konkani have many dialects. Like Malvani is konkani's most spoken dialect in Sindhudurg and Rajapur. To save konkani and it dielects and to keep konkani under one umbrella we have started new blog. This new blog have writers from all region like Ratnagiri,Sindhudurg,Goa and North Canara.

Now I will try to explain about our mission. We are not here to divide country. Language is identity of every community. If you want to save country first you have to save your own language. India is the country of several cultures and languages. If you are not giving respect to your own language then how u can respect your country ? We feels that all Indian languages (authorized by Sahitya Academy ) must have same status. Now we have different states like Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka each state have its own language.
