Explanation

Bhojpuri has approximately 26.6 million speakers but is not recognized as an official language in the Indian Constitution, despite its widespread use in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and surrounding regions. Tulu and Dogri have been added to the Eighth Schedule, while English is recognized as an official language for administrative purposes. Bhojpuri's exclusion remains a linguistic rights issue.
