The rigorous thrust by Union BJP government for #HindiImposition, negating the diversity of India is happening at an alarming pace.
The proposals made in the 11th volume of the report of the Parliamentary Committee on Official Language are a direct onslaught on India's soul. 1/2 https://t.co/Orry8qKshq
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin voiced grave concern over the aggressive pace at which the Union BJP government is pursuing Hindi imposition, warning that systematic efforts to negate India's foundational pluralism strike at the very soul of the republic. Stalin specifically criticized the eleventh volume of the Parliamentary Committee on Official Language report, which proposed mandating Hindi as the exclusive medium of instruction in premier technical institutes like IITs, IIMs, AIIMS, and central universities.
Stalin argued that forcing Hindi into professional education and recruitment examinations unfairly penalizes non-Hindi students, severely eroding their career prospects and academic potential. He underscored that India is a multicultural union whose enduring strength resides in mutual respect and constitutional equality among diverse languages. Attempting to replace this rich plurality with artificial uniformity, he stated, violates the federal spirit envisioned by the framers of the Constitution.
The Chief Minister called upon democratic and regional political parties across India to unite against central attempts at linguistic centralization. Stalin vowed that Tamil Nadu would remain steadfast in safeguarding regional languages and resisting every maneuver aimed at imposing cultural or linguistic homogeneity.
