The implementation of model rules of business in Official Language for *State Governments* does not fall under the control of the Department of Official Language (DoOL). The DoOL is primarily responsible for implementing the provisions of the Official Languages Act, 1963, and the Official Languages Rules, 1976, which pertain to the use of Official Language (Hindi) for the official purposes of the *Union*.
States have their own official languages and the authority to frame their rules of business. While the DoOL promotes the use of Hindi and can provide guidance, it does not have the authority to implement or mandate model rules of business for State Governments.
