Tamil Nadu’s Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin recently emphasized the importance of opposing Hindi imposition to safeguard Tamil identity and culture. Stalin criticized the central government’s language policies, particularly the National Education Policy and the three-language formula, arguing that they favor Hindi. He called on students to be vigilant against these strategies and to stand up for Tamil language and education, citing past anti-Hindi movements. The assertion comes amidst ongoing debates over language politics in India.
