Times of India · politics

DMK president M K Stalin has strongly warned the Tamil Nadu government against attempting to impose Hindi in the state, accusing it of surrendering the state's interests. His remarks came after a highway sign displayed names in Hindi alongside Tamil and English, violating the state's long-standing two-language policy. The government has since suspended two officials and stated severe action will be taken against those violating the policy. Stalin criticized the administration's approach, emphasizing the two-language policy's importance to Tamil Nadu's identity and cautioning against compromising on the issue.
