Himachal Pradesh Governor Kavinder Gupta on Wednesday (14 October 2026) released the book ‘Akshar Se Atmabodh Tak: Tribhasha Sutra’ in Shimla. The book, written by Prof. Sat Prakash Bansal and contributors, focuses on the three-language formula from the National Education Policy 2020.

Gupta said languages should build bridges, not walls, and emphasised promoting mother-tongue education alongside Hindi and local languages. He urged universities to revive disappearing traditional scripts. Bansal said the Central University of Himachal Pradesh runs programs in Dogri and Kashmiri and has revived the extinct Sharada script and established departments for Tibetan and Chinese studies.
The Governor expressed confidence that full NEP implementation with focus on Hindi and local languages would create opportunities for societal progress. Bansal said the book aims to help younger generations understand themselves through language and culture. He called for collective responsibility to keep Himachal's environment clean.
Asianetnews and ANI both carry the same wire copy of the Himachal Governor's book launch. The coverage is uniform straight reporting: Asianetnews reproduces the ANI feed verbatim, and ANI adds a few lines on environmental appeals but no divergent framing. The shared facts are the Governor's remarks on the three-language formula, national unity, and the university's language initiatives. Neither outlet offers political context or criticism of NEP 2020's implementation. The balanced reading is that the event itself generated no controversy. The next concrete step is the university's continued work to revive scripts, mentioned by the Vice-Chancellor.
