In which schedule of the Constitution the recognised 22 languages has been included?

  • A.6th Schedule
  • B.7th Schedule
  • C.8th Schedule
  • D.9th Schedule

Answer: C

The 22 recognised languages are listed in the 8th Schedule.

The Eighth Schedule originally listed 14 languages. Sindhi was added in 1967, Konkani, Manipuri and Nepali in 1992, and Bodo, Dogri, Maithili and Santhali by the 92nd Amendment in 2003, bringing the total to 22.

The 6th Schedule deals with the administration of tribal areas in Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura and Mizoram; the 7th Schedule contains the Union, State and Concurrent Lists; and the 9th Schedule protects listed laws, mostly land reform Acts, from challenge.
