My rights, in my language

When President Droupadi Murmu released the Constitution of India in the Santhali language, written in Ol Chiki script, it marked a much-awaited moment of inclusion. It carried echoes of a mid-20th-century debate in socio-cultural theory, and its unselfconscious resolution in a diverse country. The debate was on whether language precedes thought. While Soviet psychologist Lev Vygotsky emphasised the relevance of language in cognitive development, Swiss scholar Jean Piaget framed it differently. Far away from this debate, culturally and geographically, the best political minds of India, in Constitution Hall, were discussing the trajectory of a new democracy in which everyday politics and culture is shaped by language hierarchy. One of the few Adivasi members of the Constituent Assembly, Jaipal Singh Munda, stood up and spoke in Mundari, and demanded recognition for tribal languages and identities.
