Hon’ble Thiru @dpradhanbjp, Your remarks are deeply irresponsible and reckless, and reflect an entrenched disregard for India’s plurality, federal values, and respect for states. Tamil Nadu firmly rejects #ThreeLanguagePolicy. This is not about opposing languages, but about resisting imposition and defending Constitutional rights. Your earlier disparaging remarks about Tamils in Parliament, followed by a belated apology, only underscore a pattern of conduct that is unacceptable. The claim that there is “no Hindi imposition” is plainly dishonest. When a policy structurally corners non-Hindi speaking states like Tamil Nadu into adopting a third language with little real choice, and when crucial education funding is tied to compliance, it ceases to be a matter of choice. It is nothing short of audacity to illegally withhold a humongous sum of Rs.2,200 crore under the 'Samagra Shiksha' Scheme, effectively penalising Tamil Nadu for refusing to accept #HindiImposition. These are not discretionary grants, but funds that rightfully belong to the people of Tamil Nadu, collected through taxes cannot be weaponised as a tool of coercion. Let me also be clear. Tamil Nadu will not accept language imposition under any circumstances, whether disguised as flexibility, backed by financial pressure, or projected as national interest. This policy places an unnecessary burden on students, infringes upon the rights of states, and attempts to dilute India’s linguistic diversity into a monochromatic, homogenised “One India” framework. In the din of rhetoric, you must not evade basic questions. What third Indian language is actually being implemented in schools across Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Gujarat? How many PM SHRI Schools genuinely offer South Indian languages such as Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Telugu, and languages like Bengali, Odia, and Marathi in northern India? How many schools under the Kendriya Vidyalaya 'Sangathan' are actually teaching Tamil? How many Tamil and other South Indian language teachers have been appointed in the last 10 years? And I challenge you to place on record how much the NDA government has spent on promoting classical languages like Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, and Odia compared to Sanskrit. Your suggestion that Tamil Nadu lacks school infrastructure is equally baseless. We have built one of India’s strongest public education systems through decades of sustained investment, high enrolment, strong learning outcomes, and pioneering welfare initiatives. Our opposition to Hindi imposition is not born out of fear. Our mother Tamil will never be weakened. Tamil and Tamils have endured and will continue to resist and survive every form of imposition or cultural intrusion. This is a matter of principle, dignity, and the preservation of India’s true diversity. Tamil Nadu will not abandon its proven two-language policy, built on social consensus and strong educational outcomes, for a centrally driven framework that undermines diversity, burdens students, and weakens the federal fabric of India. Tamil Nadu’s language policy stands as a success story on the global stage, with Tamils making their mark in science and technology, medicine, and space research. The state’s economic growth and inclusivity are deeply rooted in this model. We can prove all our assertions through empirical data, and your arguments are purely rhetorical and devoid of any real data in the educational sphere. It is both inaccurate and dismissive to suggest that Tamil Nadu’s schools lag in modern education. In enrolment, learning outcomes, and innovation, Tamil Nadu continues to lead. Over the last five years, the Tamil Nadu government has achieved significant progress in infrastructure and introduced pioneering initiatives such as the Chief Minister's Free Breakfast Scheme benefiting over 20 lakh students. The #DMKManifesto2026 promises extension of the CM breakfast scheme up to Class VIII, benefiting an additional 15 lakh students. Public education remains our top priority, viewed not as expenditure but as a social investment generating long-term societal benefits. I challenge you to make this proclamation that every Indian child should compulsorily learn three languages, on the soil of Tamil Nadu while seeking the votes of its people. I also call upon AIADMK General Secretary Thiru. Palaniswami and his NDA allies to clearly state their position. Do they support this aggressively pushed three-language policy of the BJP? It is time for Thiru. Palaniswami to make his stand unequivocally clear, whether he stands with the people of Tamil Nadu or with his Delhi bosses who seek to impose Hindi under the guise of policy. #StopHindiImposition #UnityIsUniformity #RespectPluralism

Hon’ble Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, Thiru @mkstalin ji, your narrative of “imposition” is a tired attempt to mask political failures. The National Education Policy 2020 is, in fact, a manifesto for linguistic liberation. It prioritises the mother tongue so every Tamil child can excel in their own glorious language. By misrepresenting a flexible policy as “compulsory Hindi”, you are not defending Tamil; you are creating barriers that deny our youth the opportunity to become multilingual global leaders. Portraying multilingualism as a threat is misplaced. Tamil is not weakened by the learning of additional languages; it is enriched when its speakers are multilingual, confident and linguistically empowered. NEP upholds constitutional principles by promoting all languages equally and also addresses the limitations of the existing two-language system. It further focuses on implementation through initiatives such as Samagra Shiksha, teacher training, and strengthening institutions, like DIETs, along with national frameworks, such as NPST and NMM. Your questions on “reciprocity” ignore ground reality. Under the leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji, Tamil has been celebrated as a national treasure—from the Kashi Tamil Sangamam to the global stage. While the Union Government actively encourages students across India to embrace Indian languages, your government continues to deprive Tamil students of diverse opportunities for the sake of a divisive vote bank narrative. The talk of resources is merely a façade. It is the DMK government that has stalled the establishment of PM SHRI schools in Tamil Nadu by refusing to sign the MoU after giving an undertaking for the same. Despite the directions of the Supreme Court of India to establish Navodaya Vidyalayas in Tamil Nadu, your government continues to obstruct their implementation, prioritising political narratives over educational equity. This deliberate resistance is not merely administrative defiance; it is a direct disservice to lakhs of underprivileged students who stand to benefit from quality, merit-based residential education. This has effectively withheld modern infrastructure and teachers from its own students. The Union Government remains fully committed to funding and teacher training but progress is being held back by your “dishonest” politics. Mischaracterising a progressive, inclusive reform as ‘linguistic imposition’ is aimed at creating unnecessary apprehension and confusion. The real concern, perhaps, is not the policy’s clarity, but the Hon’ble Chief Minister’s unwillingness to acknowledge it. In doing so, he disregards the constitutional spirit that safeguards India’s linguistic diversity. Stop using the “Hindi imposition” argument to hide administrative failures and join the national mission of empowering every Indian language.

The recently unveiled curriculum framework by the Central Board of Secondary Education, aligned with the National Education Policy 2020, is not an innocent academic reform—it is a calculated and deeply concerning attempt at linguistic imposition that vindicates our long-standing apprehensions. Under the guise of promoting “Indian languages,” the BJP-led NDA government is aggressively advancing a centralising agenda that privileges Hindi while systematically marginalising India’s rich and diverse linguistic heritage. The so-called three-language formula is, in reality, a covert mechanism to expand Hindi into non-Hindi speaking regions. For students in southern states, this framework effectively translates into compulsory Hindi learning. Yet, where is the reciprocity? Will students in Hindi-speaking states be mandated to learn Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam—or even languages like Bengali and Marathi? The complete absence of such clarity exposes the one-sided and discriminatory nature of this policy. The irony is stark and unacceptable. The same Union government that has failed to make Tamil a mandatory language in Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan schools—and has consistently failed to appoint adequate Tamil teachers—now seeks to lecture states on promoting Indian languages. This is not commitment; this is rank hypocrisy. Does the Union government have any understanding of ground realities—of teacher availability, training capacity, and infrastructure? Where are the qualified teachers to implement this sweeping exercise? And crucially, where is the funding to support this enormous burden on the education system? This appears to be yet another ill-conceived policy announced without planning, resources, or accountability. This is not merely a question of language—it is a question of fairness, federalism, and equal opportunity. By structurally privileging Hindi-speaking students, this policy risks creating entrenched advantages in higher education and employment, further widening regional disparities. At a time when the world is moving forward at an unprecedented pace, our children must be prepared for the future. The priority should be to equip them with skills in emerging sectors like artificial intelligence, AVGC (Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, and Comics), and to strengthen scientific temper and critical thinking. Instead, this regressive and rigid language burden threatens to derail their progress. The Union government appears determined to impose Hindi, brushing aside the legitimate, consistent, and democratic concerns raised by Tamil Nadu and several other states. This approach is a direct affront to the principles of cooperative federalism and an insult to the linguistic identity of millions of Indians. India’s strength lies in its diversity—not in enforced uniformity. Any attempt to disturb this delicate balance is not just misguided; it is dangerous. Such policies strike at the very foundation of our pluralistic nation and will be firmly opposed. Does the Thiru Palaniswami-led AIADMK and its NDA allies in Tamil Nadu subscribe to this imposition? Or will they, for once, stand up for the rights, identity, and future of our students? #StopHindiImposition
