Mauritian Creole in Parliament: Environment Minister Rajesh Bhagwan calls it a great moment for parliamentary democracy

He paid tribute to the organizations, linguists, and activists who championed this cause for decades, specifically mentioning Dev Virahsawmy, Vinesh Hookoomsing, and Arnaud Carpooran. Bhagwan views the establishment of the Select Committee as "a new stage in our decolonization," made possible by the government's "political will." He considers the introduction of Creole in Parliament as "one of the greatest achievements," following the live broadcast of parliamentary debates.

For Bhagwan, Mauritian Creole is primarily "the language of all Mauritians" and a strong factor for national unity. He believes its inclusion in parliamentary debates will enable citizens to "better understand the work" of the Assembly, which is broadcast live. He stated that this motion is a logical step to ensure all compatriots can better understand parliamentary debates.
