जी.डी. गोयंका पब्लिक स्कूल, पू्र्वी दिल्ली की ओर से  "हिंदी दिवस" की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं

आज पूरा विश्व हिंदी भाषा की शक्ति को पहचान रहा है। भाषा अभिव्यक्ति का साधन होती है। भाषा अभिव्यक्ति का माध्यम होती है। हमारी भावनाओं को जब शब्द-देह मिलता है, तो हमारी भावनाएं चिरंजीव बन जाती है। इसलिए भाषा उस शब्द-देह का आधार होती है। उन शब्द-विश्व की जितनी हम आराधना करें, उतनी कम है।
