In a major linguistic overhaul, the Chhattisgarh Police has decided to remove Urdu and Persian words from its official proceedings. A total of 109 words will be replaced with their Hindi counterparts. This initiative, outlined in a letter issued by the DGP to all SPs, is designed to standardize the language used in police documentation. The move is expected to improve the clarity and accessibility of police records. The change will impact a wide array of police activities, from everyday logs to formal legal filings, promoting a more uniform use of Hindi across the department. This aims to modernize the department’s official language.
