Sumita R. Dias Mr. Frank Anthony, M.P., in his speech on October 20, 1985, at New Delhi, during the Indian National Congress Centenary celebrations, said, “That it was on his resolution in Parliament, in 1959, that when what came to be known as the Nehru formula was announced, namely, that English shall be the alternate/official language for as long as the non-Hindi speaking people so desire. Today, English is perhaps the de facto link language especially between the North and the South and in higher education. English was India’s window on the world’s progress in science and technology.

She's So Beautiful Cliff Richard I hear your accusations darling, And my reply is hard to find. Oh, I wanna know you better. Won't you consider one more time. River flow to shining sea, Mountain nectar blue. Children flow like waterfalls, Sweeter love renew. Peace then war, then peace again. Trial and error true. Oh, if you were to visit there, You would love her too!! ooooo! She's so beautiful. She's so kind and free. She's so beautiful. She's all there is to me. (repeat) Tiny planet spins through space, Gives my life to me. Fifteen billion human beings, Where's our destiny? Peace then war, then peace again. Trial and error true. Oh, if you were to come down there, You would love her too! like I do! She's so beautiful. She's so kind and free! yeah! She's so beautiful. She's all there is to me. (repeat 7 times) ========================= Evergreen Tree Cliff Richard Oh darling, will our love be like an evergreen tree Stay ever green and young
