We may find very many persons in India who can tell Alphabet correctly. But sadly we don't find even 10% thereof who can tell swar and vyanjan [correct number and pronunciation] Indeed a sorry state of affairs. We celebrate 14th September as Hindi Divas and honour those who excel in writing essay in Hindi and other such competitive things to judge the proficiency level. I bet that most of the interviewees fail when asked to recite swar and vyanjan. We must inculcate the habit of correctly knowing our mother tongue to the existing and coming generation. In our Schools we used to learn Tables [Paharas] now ask a child a small calculation, he/she will bring out his/her mobile and make the requisite calculation. We are forgetting the basics and this is the need of the hour to revive it firmly.
