The Khasi language of Meghalaya has been withdrawn from the UNESCO's Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger as it is now considered as safe. UNESCO declared on its website on Friday that the language is spoken by some 900,000 people in the state and is no longer in danger.Khasi is spoken in the region of the Khasi and Jaintia hills. Recognised as associate official language in the state since 2005, Khasi is widely used in several domains such as primary and secondary education, radio, television and religion, said the UNESCO official website. Admitting that some dialects of Khasi are dying as they make way for the standardized variant, the editorial board said, it was pleased to acknowledge that the future of this language seems to be assured. Available in its online version since 2009, the Interactive Atlas is regularly updated based on feedback from linguists and speakers of endangered languages.
