To

The Secretary 

Ministry of Health & Family Welfare

Government of India

New Delhi

 

Sir,

 

Sub: Request for ordering printing of Department name and OM in English at the top of English copy of orders - regarding.

 

This All India Postal & RMS Pensioners Association is surprised to note that of late all the OMs emanating from your Ministry contains the name of the Department and the OM details in Hindi even in the OMs of English copy. We are surprised as to whether this is a novel way of imposing Hindi on non-Hindi speaking people? We have no objection in printing the name etc in HIndi in the OMs issued in Hindi language. But we would like to request you to intervene to ensure that the same is not used in English Copy of the OMs but English version is used as was the practice hitherto. 

 

This Association is confident that necessary orders will be issued to correct the erring official in your Ministry.

 

Thanking You,

Yours faithfully,

K.Ragavendran

General Secretary
