Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
After independence, India faced the challenge of reorganization of states. People demanded that the states should be reorganized on the basis of language. Initially, the central government resisted the demands fearing that it would threaten the unity and integrity of the nation. The government later accepted the linguistic principle after much protests and struggles from the people. The creation of states based on language has improved unity, allowed for diversity, and facilitated administration.
Thus, the Central government did not immediately accept the formation of linguistic states.
