In the National Debate on making Hindi the official language for the country, number of different language speakers was discussed. According to the 2001 census, around 42 crore people are native speakers of Hindi. The population of the country is given in international units, as around 1004 million. To find the number of people in the country who are native speakers of other languages, we need to subtract 42 crores from 1004 million. 1 million = 1,000,000 OR 10,00,000. 1004 million = 1,004,000,000 OR 1,00,40,00,000.
