<span>He said that being official language of the nation, Hindi should 
be implemented in a proper way as per the official language 
policy. Competitions are being held during the Hindi Fortnight to 
motivate the employees to work more in Hindi, he said.<div id="gmail-_forkInArticleAdContainer" style="width:0px;height:0px"><ins><div id="gmail-beacon_1c64292a16" style="left: 0px; top: 0px; visibility: hidden;"><img src="http://wtf2.forkcdn.com/www/delivery/lg.php?bannerid=0&campaignid=0&zoneid=3360&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thehansindia.com%2Fposts%2Findex%2FAndhra-Pradesh%2F2018-09-08%2FHindi-Fortnight-fete-begins%2F410599&referer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F&cb=1c64292a16" alt="" style="width: 0px; height: 0px;" width="0" height="0"></div></ins></div></span><div style="line-height:100%"><br></div>

<span>Hindi implementation requires collective and united effort in 
which everybody’s role is important, because it is a widely spoken 
language, he said and called upon the employees to use Hindi in their 
day to day work.</span></div></div>
