    he Mother Tongue Survey of India (MTSI) is a significant initiative undertaken by the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to document and preserve the linguistic diversity of India. In November 2022, the MHA completed this comprehensive survey, which included field videography of 576 languages spoken across the country. This project aimed to ensure that the mother tongues of various communities are recorded and preserved, contributing to the cultural and linguistic heritage of India.

    The MTSI covers numerous languages and dialects spoken by different ethnic groups, showcasing India's linguistic diversity. The field videography serves as an important archival resource that can help future generations understand the spoken forms of these languages, along with cultural aspects such as folk songs and oral traditions that are associated with them.
