Chennai: DMK president M K Stalin alleged on Monday that the Centre’s move on dropping the clause on compulsory Hindi learning in the draft National Education Policy was aimed at deceiving Tamil Nadu and demanded an explanation over it.
He sought a categorical assurance that Hindi will not be thrust on the southern state.
Presiding over a function to celebrate the 96th birth anniversary of his father and DMK patriarch, late M Karunanidhi here, Stalin said in the absence of such an explanation, Tamil Nadu will witness a massive agitation on the lines of the 1965 stir to oppose Hindi.
Recalling the demonstration led by Karunanidhi during the pre-Independence era and the 1965 protests against Hindi in Tamil Nadu, he said a situation was now emerging for reprising such massive agitations.
“The announcement (by the Centre on dropping the contentious clause mandating Hindi learning) has been made with an intent to deceive and if there is no explanation (assuring that Hindi will not be thrust) in two to three days, the leaders of the alliance partners here will get together, decide and following that, Tamil Nadu will witness a massive agitation, be prepared,” Stalin told party workers.
The DMK chief alleged that the BJP-led Centre was enacting a drama on the language issue after seeing the huge opposition to the proposal in the draft National Education Policy on Hindi learning in Tamil Nadu.

All dravidian politicians are nothing but southern versions of brainwashed or hare brained Kashmiri extremists but in lungis. These illiterate womanisers are bastards of Indian democracy who will surely get the treatment kashmiris are getting from the Indian Army which they deserve
Stalin an uneducated fellow can not tell even a Tamil proverb properly in public meeting.Karunanudhi a much married man with multiple wives and children ,who is basically a Telugu has been filling tamilians for decades.Karunanidhi hated north Indians because at his times the marwaris in TN were richer.Anither complex Karunanidhi had was he was dark and as he perceived north Indians were fair.Also Karunanidhi was not educated in any thing other than a bit of Tamil.But for generations he has kept tamilian who are capable of learning any language could have learnt hindhu and git jobs any where in india like our brethrn from kerala,Andhra pradesh,and karnataka.
Karunanidhi and his family have sacrificed the lives of TN youths in the name of tamil but actually deprived their livelihood.
