Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: “The classical language status that Marathi has received is not only a pride of the language, but also of the entire Marathi culture. The use of the Marathi language should increase in commercial transactions and Government administration. Culture flows because of language,” said Dr Dhairyasheel Solunke, renowned economist.
He was speaking at a programme organised by the Marathi Department of Vivekanand College on Saturday as part of ‘Abhijat Marathi Din and Bhasha’ week.
