Amid allegations of BJP trying to impose Hindi imperialism, Vice President Venkaiah Naidu said, don’t impose any language on anyone, don’t oppose any language. If possible, learn as many languages as possible. The Vice President said this when Tamil Nadu CM Stalin was also present on the stage.
MK Stalin has been the most vocal in this language controversy since its inception. Recently, he had demanded from PM Modi to give equal status to Tamil as Hindi. Sharing the stage with the PM, Stalin said that Tamil should be made the official language like Hindi and also the official language in the Madras High Court. Stalin made a scathing remark on Amit Shah’s statement on Hindi. Stalin said it would ruin the integrity of the country.
Tamil Nadu CM Stalin told PM Modi, Tamil should also get equal status with Hindi.
There was a ruckus on Amit Shah’s statement
Union Minister Amit Shah had appealed to the people to promote Hindi language on Hindi Diwas. He said that if any language can do the work of uniting the country, it is Hindi. There are many languages in India, each has its own importance. It is necessary to have only one language in the whole country, which can become its identity in the world.
Amit Shah said, emphasis will have to be given on the use of Hindi to realize the dreams of Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. This statement of Amit Shah was strongly criticized by regional parties. Karnataka CM BS Yediyurappa had called it an attempt to impose Hindi language on the states.
