Tamil Nadu Debates Hindi Imposition and Delimitation Concerns

Chief Minister MK Stalin and Union Minister Amit Shah clash over language policies and potential impacts of Lok Sabha seat redistribution.

  • Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin has reiterated opposition to the imposition of Hindi, emphasizing the state's commitment to its two-language policy of Tamil and English.
  • Union Minister Amit Shah assured southern states, including Tamil Nadu, that no parliamentary seats would be reduced during the upcoming delimitation process, promising fair representation.
  • The DMK has accused the BJP-led central government of using the National Education Policy (NEP) to enforce a three-language formula, which they view as a backdoor effort to impose Hindi.
  • Stalin has called for an all-party meeting on March 5 to address concerns over potential reductions in Tamil Nadu's Lok Sabha representation due to population-based delimitation.
  • Actor-politician Vijay criticized both the DMK and BJP for their handling of the language and education policy debates, likening their disputes to a 'kindergarten fight.'
