Yes, they should be required to learn the primary official language of the region they are settling in.

 @9VW69JGanswered…1mo1MO

English is.one of the official languages of india. So long as they settle in some area that has a large number of English speakers they should be able to make it. Though they will be limited in their opportunities and may face issues.

If they want to then they should as it's going to help them a lot in living here but it shouldn't be compulsory and no pressure should be put on them

 @9QSPLZDfrom Texas  answered…4mos4MO

It depends on how long they reside in India. If they are staying here for a couple of years, then they don't have to learn Hindi or another Indian language, but if they are becoming long-time or permanent residents then they must learn Hindi/other Indian language.

 @9L4ZJHGanswered…8mos8MO

Not compulsory,but they have to learn it as they are planning to live here for long time. It will be helpful for them in future.

 @9HRZR58answered…11mos11MO

It his highly encouraged to learn but it is not enforced or compulsory to converse in an Indian language. However if they learn the language it will be easier for them to communicate and a boost for Indian culture. The government can organize classes which interested people can go. It isn't compulsory but very encouraged.

 @9H6MPZ3answered…12mos12MO

No, and this is a stupid question. There is no language that is called the Indian language. This question should instead say "any Indian Language"; and my answer would be yes; an immigrant should learn any one of the 300 odd Indian languages to integrate with the society; and yes, English happens to be one of the Indian languages.
