Why Telugu Can Be India’s Official Language 🇮🇳

About this video

Absolutely, here’s a **clear and well-structured explanation** that you can use as a **short video script or voice-over** for your video on the topic:

🎙️ **Why do we swear on the Bhagavad Gita in court, but not the Ramayana?**

In Indian courts, when someone takes an oath, they often do it on the **Bhagavad Gita**, especially if they are Hindu.

But have you ever wondered — **why not the Ramayana?**

Here’s the answer:

🕉️ **1. The Ramayana is not just a book — it's sacred.**
It tells the divine story of **Lord Rama**, who is worshipped as God. The book itself is treated as holy in many Hindu homes. So swearing on it in legal matters or while resolving disputes may feel **disrespectful** to many believers.

📖 **2. The Bhagavad Gita is different.**
It is a spiritual dialogue between **Lord Krishna and Arjuna** — focused on **truth, duty, and justice**.
That’s why it fits perfectly with the idea of speaking the **truth in a court of law**.

⚖️ **3. The Gita is already accepted legally.*
*
The Indian legal system recognizes the Bhagavad Gita as a standard religious text for oaths.
The Ramayana, while respected, is **not used officially in courts** for swearing.

🙏 **4. Emotional & cultural reasons.**
Many Hindus consider the Ramayana **too sacred** for such use. It’s not about law — it’s about **faith and reverence**.

🛑 **So it’s not that you *can’t* swear on the Ramayana — it’s that we *don’t*, out of deep respect.*

"Why do courts use the Bhagavad Gita for oaths, but not the Ramayana? Here's the truth behind this sacred choice. 🙏📜 #BhagavadGita #Ramayana #CourtOath #Hinduism #Truth" #upsc
