Option 1 -> The passage states English writers like Rushdie have global recognition, not that regional languages provide this benefit.
Option 2 -> Regional languages are described as connecting people within India to their local culture, not facilitating international communication.
Option 3 -> The passage explicitly states "regional languages remain vital for connecting with local heritage" and mentions mother tongue learning "connects individuals to their roots and offers insights into local traditions."
Option 4 -> Technology is presented as a tool to help preserve languages, not something regional languages promote.
Hence, Option 3 -> The passage clearly emphasizes that regional languages are vital because they connect people with their local heritage and traditions, as mentioned in the discussion of mother tongue importance and cultural preservation -> correct
