Delhi HC seeks Centre, DMRC stand on renaming Supreme Court metro in Hindi

The Delhi High Court has requested the Union Government and the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to respond to a petition demanding the renaming of the Supreme Court Metro station in Hindi as 'Sarvoch Nyayalaya'. The plea highlights the need for the station's name to reflect the official language, promoting inclusivity and accessibility for Hindi-speaking citizens. Advocates for the change argue that the current English name does not adequately represent India's linguistic diversity. The court's inquiry reflects broader discussions on the importance of regional languages in public signage and services. As the DMRC and Centre prepare their responses, this case may set a precedent for similar requests in the future, emphasizing the significance of cultural representation in urban infrastructure.
