A New Initiative by me on National Hindi Divas / Hindi Day

in #india5 years ago (edited)

Hello friends!

Yesterday was National Hindi Divas. It was way back on September 14 in 1949, when the Constitution of India declared Hindi written in Devanagari Script as an official language. Since then National Hindi Divas is celebrated on this day every year in India. Beginning from this day, some organisations and institutions also celebrate an entire Hindi Week or even Hindi Month.

With over 250 million Hindi speakers, Hindi is the 4th most spoken language in the entire world.

Despite this, when I turned vegan, I was surprised to find no text in Hindi language on this subject. So I had to write a book on veganism on my own. I completed that book in 2015 with the title Khoon Ki Ganga Mein, Tirti Meri Kishti. However, I never published that book (except two copies for gift purpose).

Although I had received several requests for a copy of that book and people wanted to pay for it, I haven't made it available for sale in the market.

As promised last year, now I'm making that book available on Steem blockchain for free access to every one interested. And I chose the National Hindi Divas to start posting it in parts on this blockchain from @veganizer account.

If you know Hindi and want to read it, do follow @veganizer account so that you won't miss any post on it. Here is the link for the first post where I talk about the circumstances that compelled me to write this book in spite of myself not being a writer:

The post for Preface talks further on it:

I'll be breaking it down in small parts so that it won't consume much of your time daily but you can still read it in its entirety.

I solicit your suggestions to improve the book further to make it free from any error.

Thank you!

hence downvote

Well, not actually profitable in monetary sense. In fact, I do make a loss but yes, it's not a bad game to play for me anyway! Let's keep playing as much as we can afford. Your contribution is always welcome!
