Which of the following is NOT one of the classical languages of India?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Magahi.

The language that is NOT one of the classical languages of India is Magahi. India has recognized eleven classical languages, which are: Tamil, Sanskrit, Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam, Odia, Marathi, Pali, Prakrit, Assamese, and Bengali. These languages are considered classical due to their ancient origins, rich literature, and historical significance. Magahi, though an important language in the Bihar region, does not hold the status of a classical language in India.
