How many Indian languages does BHASHINI support for text, as stated in October 2026?

  1. A.22
  2. B.23
  3. C.28
  4. D.36

Correct answer

D. 36

Explanation

The correct answer is 36. The platform supports 36 Indian languages for text, and that figure should be kept apart from the other language counts given for it. Option B, 23, is wrong because that is the number of Indian languages supported for voice, not for text, and candidates are often asked to separate the two. Option A, 22, is a tempting distractor because 22 languages are listed in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution, but it is not the figure reported for BHASHINI. Option C, 28, matches no figure in the announcement at all. Along with Indian languages, the platform also covers 35 international languages. The same note records that BHASHINI runs on more than 800 government websites, has enabled over 9 billion AI inferences in all, and handles upwards of 24 million inferences each day, which indicates how widely these language models are already being used.
