The LIC website has been reduced to a propaganda tool for Hindi imposition. Even the option to select English is displayed in Hindi!
This is nothing but cultural and language imposition by force, trampling on India's diversity. LIC grew with the patronage of all Indians. How dare it betray the majority of its contributors?
We demand an immediate rollback of this linguistic tyranny. #StopHindiImposition
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin strongly criticized the Life Insurance Corporation of India for redesigning its official website to enforce Hindi dominance, pointing out that even the webpage navigation option to select English was displayed exclusively in Hindi Devanagari script. Stalin condemned the move as an aggressive act of cultural and linguistic chauvinism that tramples on India's constitutional diversity.
The Chief Minister reminded the Union Government that LIC was built through the patronage, savings, and trust of citizens across every non-Hindi speaking state in India. He questioned how a public financial institution could insolently disregard the linguistic rights of the majority of the nation's populace by converting an essential public services portal into a vehicle for linguistic imposition.
Stalin asserted that forced linguistic homogenization undermines national integration and treats non-Hindi citizens as second-class customers. He demanded that LIC authorities immediately withdraw the Hindi-exclusive digital interface, restore neutral English navigation options, and introduce multilingual accessibility in all regional languages. Stalin warned that Tamil Nadu will continuously oppose attempts to impose Hindi through central institutions, urging Union authorities to respect federal pluralism.
