The war between the Center and the Tamil Nadu over the three-language policy is intensifying, Bageshwar Dham Sarkar Acharya Dhirendra Krishna Shastri said that the basic language of this country is Hindi, but there should be no discrimination with any language.
Bageshwar Dham chief told ANI, “The basic language of this country is Hindi. Languages can be different, but no discrimination should be done with any language. Hindi is the root of this country.”
This morning Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin reiterated his talk of rejecting three language policy.
Stalin said on X, “1967: Anna sat down; Tamil Nadu stood up! If the glorious Tamil Nadu does any harm, we should run like a forest fire! We should roar like wildfire! We should celebrate victory!”
On the other hand, Tamil Nadu BJP launched its signature campaign. A campaign was launched in support of the Trishag policy of the National Education Policy (NEP). The campaign was attended by state president K Annamalai, party leader Tamilisai Sundararajan and other leaders.
The BJP leader questioned why children are being denied the opportunity to learn another language, which will open new employment opportunities.
The Tamil Nadu government has strongly opposed the implementation of the new 2020 new education policy (NEP), expressing concern over the “Tri-language formula” and alleged that the Center wants to ‘impose’ Hindi.
Stalin criticized the triple policy, saying that as a result the Center has stopped the state’s funds and delimitation will now ‘affect’ the state representation.
Tamil Nadu Deputy Chief Minister Udayanidhi Stalin on Sunday gave a strong warning against the central government’s alleged efforts to impose Hindi on the state. He announced that Tamil Nadu would never accept the new education policy (NEP) and in any form to impose Hindi.
However, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan reiterated the importance of promoting Indian languages through the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
Speaking in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, Pradhan emphasized that all Indian languages have equal rights and should be taught equally. He clarified that NEP’s Tri-Language Policy does not impose Hindi as the only language, which is contrary to the concerns raised by some people in Tamil Nadu.
