We Demand Respect for Bengali Language in West Bengal

Bengali is not just a language—it is the soul of West Bengal. It is the language of Rabindranath Tagore, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, and millions of proud citizens. But today, in our own land, we see a growing trend where service providers, businesses, and public-facing staff speak in Hindi or other languages, ignoring Bengali altogether.

This is unacceptable.

We demand from the government that:

1. All public services, private companies, and customer-facing roles in West Bengal must use Bengali as the primary language of communication. All companies operating in West Bengal must ensure their staff can speak basic Bengali.
2. Government authorities must monitor and enforce this language respect through policies and guidelines.
3. All private companies must give preference or priority to Bengali-speaking people over others while hiring. The government should have strict vigilance on this.                               *We do not oppose any language—but we cannot allow Bengali to be sidelined in its own homeland. Language is identity, and it must be protected with pride and dignity.*

Speak Bengali in Bengal.
Respect the culture, respect the people.

Because if you lose your language, you will lose your identity.
