    Advertiser is targeting their target audience. It is a reflection of you own insecurity that you feel threatened by #Hindi. It is #xenophobic to suggest that Hindi-speaking ones in #Karnataka or #Telangana do not deserve to be persuaded. Not questioning that people love their native language, but there is no reason to hate other languages.

    Also, advertiser is not forcing anybody to prefer Hindi over their mother tongue. Forced #HindiImposition is another canard. #LanguageBigotry

    That's a beautiful poem.

    It's a travesty that #language is being #politicized everywhere in #India.

    #BJP in north and #DMK in south are tearing the country apart by using language as a wedge.

    Indians accuse British of #DivideAndConquer but British did not have to divide India when they arrived in 17th century. It was already divided, and they exploited the divisions.

    India remains divided after independence, opening doors to more foreign malfeasance.

    How does a LANGUAGE #enslave people? Are we enslaved by #English?

    #LinguisticCleansing of #Tamil predates independence of #India. #Maraimalai #Adigal started Thanith Tamil Iyakkam (Independent Tamil Movement) in 1916.

    Putting Tamil hostility toward #Hindi under umbrella of #HindiImposition is deceptive & distracting.

    Real goal of Tamil language #bigotry has ALWAYS been to strip out & exclude ALL INDIGENOUS languages, including #Sanskrit, from Tamil.

  20. 'Against Constitution': Madras Bar Association Objects To Hindi Names For Bills Replacing IPC, CrPC and Evidence Act

    The Madras Bar Association has passed a resolution raising objection against the renaming of IPC, Indian Evidence Act and CrPC in Hindi. The Association has taken objection to the names "Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita Bill", "Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita Bill", "Bharatiya Sakshya Bill", for the Bills which seek to replace the Indian Penal Code, Code of Criminal Procedure and the Indian Evidence Act respectively.

  21. Interview: Prof Ganesh Devy on attempts to distort history and his battle to preserve it

    Eminent linguist and historian Prof. Ganesh Devy spoke to The Federal during his recent visit to Chennai for a discussion on the book, 'Indians: histories of a civilisation'.

    In this freewheeling chat, the historian talks about this book of which he is one of the editors; he also touches upon the central government's attempts at rewriting history and on the imposition of Hindi. Placing Tamil language's heritage in the global context, Prof Devy argues why the BJP government's approach towards language is dangerous and needs to be countered.

  22. ‘Hindi Imposition’: Modi Govt’s Nomenclature for New Criminal Law Bills Stirs Row

    Tamil Nadu CM Stalin said the naming of the Bills is an 'audacious attempt' by the BJP government to 'tamper with the essence of India's diversity through a sweeping overhaul' which 'reeks of linguistic imperialism'.

  27. Modi Govt Unveils Controversial New Criminal Bills: 'Sedition' Law to Change But in Name Only

    Although Amit Shah said sedition law has been 'repealed', it appears only the word 'sedition' may have been dropped, for the law remains and, in many ways, has been made more draconian.

  28. @edendestroyer it is not something that “became a thing” recently. Hindi imposition has always been a thing for us and we are grateful for visionary leaders who foresaw this years ago lest we lose Thamizh like so many other languages that we have lost to #HindiImposition. I can get by with broken Hindi despite that thanks to friends from the Hindi belt who think it’s beneath them to speak any other language not knowing what they are missing out on. For us it’s another communication medium and we have no problem learning it if necessary. Just don’t shove it down our throats or anyone else’s for that matter. I stayed in France for a few years so I can speak a bit of French too…

  29. Dahi out, curd in: FSSAI withdraws order after protests over Hindi imposition

    The decision came after several milk federations in Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu, raised objections to the use of the Hindi word ‘dahi’ instead of regional nomenclatures.

  31. Drew an editorial illustration after a several years:

    Out today on The Soup, this illustration accompanies 'The languages of linking', a beautiful essay by Rega Jha about how multilingualism leads to cultural riches that we will lose if we succumb to the increasingly shrill demands for the imposition of a single language across the country.

    (Thanks to Meera Ganapathy for this commission.)
