Solution

The correct option is B 1965
Constitutionally, the use of English language for official purposes was supposed to be stopped in 1965. However, this was not feasible in a diverse country like India. Even though Hindi was chosen as the alternative, only a modest percent of the total population identified Hindi as their mother tongue.
