The National Education Policy 2020 realises the potentials and possibilities of Indian multilingualism in understanding of Indian arts and culture and it restates that there will be a major effort from both the Central and State governments to invest in large numbers of language teachers in all regional languages around the country, especially for all languages mentioned in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution of India. India is a very rich country so far as languages are concerned and values, arts, culture, knowledge and wisdom are embedded in those languages which are so important in order to know and realise the true Indianness.

We are well aware that several languages including minor and tribal arethreatened and with the loss of those languages we will lose a variety of cultural experiences and values. Therefore, keeping in mind the Constitutional provisions, aspirations of the people, regions, and the Union, there is a need to promote multilingualism in order to achieve the goal of Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat. India’s languages with a huge body of ancient as well as modern literature, film, and music help form India’s national identity and intellectual and spiritual wealth. For the purposes of cultural enrichment as well as national integration, all young Indians should be aware of the rich and vast array of languages oftheir country, and the treasures that they and their literatures contain. With the aforesaid backdrop, the national conference on “Indian Languages, Arts and Culture” has been proposed. The themes of the conference have been planned in a comprehensive manner with a view to providing a strong foundation for understanding multilingualism and promoting Indian languages, arts and culture.

The present national conference will be organized in association with IQAC of the institute. It is a humble effort to provide a platform to the teachers, teacher educators and experts to share their views, researches, innovative practices with a special reference to multilingualism and the potentials of Indian languages pertaining to arts and culture as envisaged in the National Education Policy 2020.The knowledge generated thereof could be collated for the betterment of future policies and practices in the country.
