The claim that VB-GRAMG provides an employment guarantee is incorrect. The only guarantee is to 'empower' the Centre to allow partial implementation in notified areas alone.
It is argued that India-Israel ties are moving from buyer–seller dynamic to one focused on joint development & manufacturing partnership, a shift 'more durable' than traditional arms sales.
Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
A pathetic fear mongering article.
a) How does Tamil culture get threatened if people learn/speak Hindi? There are lakhs of Tamils (self included) living all over India, Hindi helps us bond with others who may not speak Tamil.
b) Hindi is widely understood in majority of India, and at this point in time, is the most widely spoken language.
c) How does Hindi equate to saffronisation? If that is the case, then for me DMK equates the Christian conversion mafia.
d) A child starts learning languages from 1st standard onwards. Is this guy suggesting a 10 year old should be allowed to choose the language which is most beneficial to him? Eh? How?
e) These same guys who shout at the suggestion of Hindi are perfectly ok to send their own children to private schools (where Hindi is taught). This is 2019 not 1950 – hope the Tamil people teach them a lesson.
DMK has no progressive agenda, hence creating a fear psychosis and hysteria over fake theories.
Hope Tamils see through this party of atheists, womanisers and anti-nationals – and join the mainstream.
Pakistani language people have one language formula and India language people have three language formula. Clearly Pakistani language people and Pakistani language are world class cheats. Ramanujan Chary should change his name to Rahamanuja Sharia going by the support for that Islamic Sharia Mosque language Hindi.
People try to be gentle in disagreements. We tamilians and south Indians do not have an issue with any language but we oppose it only when we are force fed. You look at all the south Indians moving to other states have learnt the language of that particular place. We don’t stick to our language we converse in your language. Tell me how many of the hindi speakers have learnt the local language…. You still try to converse in hindi. So I am leaving it to you to decide. In a country like India you can never bring in one language policy as it India is country of different cultures. And you need to respect. All the abusive coments shows that you don’t celebrate differences. I am happy with my south connection. It’s more than the south moving to the north it’s the north migrating to south so my suggestion all my friends from the north is that instead of imposing your language on us than you better learn south Indian languages.
NB: 10 lakhs students have failed in hindi in the hindi heart land
I agree that every student should study three languages in school: mother tongue, English and a third, which should be a North Indian language for a South Indian and a South Indian language for a North Indian. For example, Bengal and Tamil Nadu could team up to teach each other’s language in school. In no South Indian State is willing to come to such an agreement with a Hindi-speaking state, the latter should teach both Hindi and Urdu in School to all students up to the High School level.
Cow belt is known to use tax paying revenues of south, they now want identity of south to be also eliminated, this is exploitation of federal structure to suit bjp needs
Find it comical that DMK – a party that is not even “pan-Tamil Nadu” has the audacity to speak for “non-Hindi” speaking people ? Are Telugus, Kannadigas, Odiyas, Marathis, Gujarathis, Bengalis etc all in need of “saving” by these xenophobic regionalists ?
Tamil Chauvinism is transforming Tamil Nadu into an insular backwater – it is incredibly hard for even South Indians who are not tamil to live in Tamil Nadu – as their people know only one language , tamil. Being multi-lingual is the future of the world -yet Tamils want to go back 1000 years to a monolingual society.
There are many more pressing issues facing Tamil Nadu – yet the fanatics from DMK are only interested in a 40 year old tantrum for political gains. They seem to forget that Neither Modi, Nor Shah nor Sitharaman have a mother tongue of “Hindi”. Yet this same old meaningless noise is the only politics of the DMK – a party that is totally bankrupt of any new ideas .
Their only problem is if people listen to Modi’s speecher, Stalin will become irrelevant. So that is the root cause of their stance against Hindi.
nicely written!
Make Urdu as a national language All non BJP politicians will be happy. Any way 30% of the populations of all states are muslims and they continue to grow
what to say sir…. we have to think using upper portion of our neck…instead of rear end like U…
These Tamilians are the biggest “hindi” “hindi” jokers – there is no drinking water in chennai – no problem, they want to focus on “hindi”.
Tamil is a great language – but their fanatic reaction to Hindi is not normal. If Tamils were really confident about their language they wouldnt’ react with fear and cry about Hindi for the last 40 years.
Today, Tamils don’t know English or Hindi. How they expect to survive outside Tamil Nadu is a big question.
As though Pakistani language people know any Indian language or English. India is not owned by Pakistani language speaking people i.e. Hindians.
