If the BJP’s claim that our Hon'ble PM has great love for Tamil is true, why is it never reflected in action?
🎯Rather than installing Sengol in Parliament, uninstall Hindi from Union Government offices in Tamil Nadu. Instead of hollow praise, make Tamil an official language on par with Hindi and allot more funds for Tamil than a dead language like Sanskrit.
🎯Stop the desperate attempts to saffronise Thiruvalluvar and declare his timeless classic, Thirukkural, as India’s National Book. Quoting Kurals during the Union Budget will not cut it. Honour them by ensuring special schemes, a prompt disaster relief fund, and new railway projects for Tamil Nadu.
🎯Stop wasting taxpayers’ money on the nonsense of 'Hindi Pakhwadas' in Tamil Nadu. End the absurdity of imposing Sanskrit names like Antyodaya, Tejas, and Vande Bharat on Tamil Nadu’s trains. Revert to the practice of naming them in Tamil, like Chemmozhi, Muthunagar, Vaigai, Malaikottai, Thirukkural Express, etc.
Love for Tamil is proven through deeds, not deception.

Chief Minister M.K. Stalin challenged the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Union government to prove its professed admiration for the Tamil language through substantive administrative actions rather than symbolic gestures. Stalin argued that installing the historic Sengol sceptre inside the new Parliament building cannot substitute for removing mandatory Hindi usage from central government departments operating across Tamil Nadu, calling for Tamil to be designated an official language alongside Hindi.
The Chief Minister criticized the central budget for allocating substantial public funds to promote Sanskrit while providing meager support for ancient classical Tamil research. He urged central authorities to halt attempts to saffronize philosopher Thiruvalluvar, demanding instead that the Thirukkural be formally declared India's National Book and respected through timely disaster relief disbursements, special development schemes, and new regional railway connectivity projects.
Stalin also demanded an immediate end to official expenditure on Hindi promotional fortnights within Tamil Nadu, urging Indian Railways to cease imposing Sanskrit train names such as Vande Bharat and Antyodaya. He called for restoring traditional Tamil designations like Vaigai and Chemmozhi Express, asserting that genuine cultural respect requires administrative deeds rather than political deception.
