New Delhi,The Department of Official Language issues circulars from time to time for implementation of official language policy as per the Official Languages Act, 1963 and Official Languages Rules, 1976. In compliance to the same, D.O. No. 12015/13/2013-OL(Tech) dated 17.09.2013 has been issued. 

In continuation of the same, O.M.

It was also requested to issue necessary directions to all the attached/subordinate offices/undertakings etc. located in ‘A’ Region i.e. Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Rajasthan, Haryana, Delhi and UTs of Andaman & Nicobar islands. In compliance of the above Ministry of Home Affairs issued circular No 11020/01/2013-Hindi dated 27th May, 2014.
