Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 14th September.
On September 14, 1949, the Constituent Assembly of India officially adopted Hindi, written in the Devanagari script, as one of the official languages of the Republic of India. This decision, following extensive debates, was a significant step in shaping India's linguistic policy. Article 343 of the Indian Constitution enshrines this, though it also allowed for the continued use of English for official purposes for a period. This day is now celebrated annually as Hindi Diwas (Hindi Day).
