Much has been written on the pitfalls of forcing the use of Hindi as the national language on non-Hindi states. But what about the hegemonic project which is threatening to subsume the likes of Magadhi and Bhojpuri?

Funny! The article is written in English that borrows words from all world languages. 
I don't see anyone complaining when English does that. 

Looks like this article is something only Pussy-grabber and his fans appreciate. They ask their children, "Tell me how to use rendezvous in a sentence?" Smile

That's right. Hindi is a big threat to many North Indian languages. It is killing or has already killed many NI languages. 

It is a fraudulent claim used by the Hindi colonialists to dump the speakers of 49 different languages in the Hindi bucket to claim a numerical supremacy. 

High time all the regions ditch Hindi in favor of their mother tongue and get rid of colonialism.
