Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Thursday called upon the Central government not to impose Hindi on the state, saying: "Don`t impose Hindi on us. Consider Tamil equivalent to Hindi."
In his address at Chennai’s Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he also said that his state is a model for inclusive growth, and this is the Dravidian model.
“Our state is a pioneer not only in economic and other related factors but also in social justice, equality and women empowerment and this is the Dravidian model of governance,” said the Tamil Nadu CM.
Stalin said that Tamil is an ancient language but a modern language as well, as he demanded Tamil be the official language in the High Court and government offices.
Tamil language is eternal and the Tamil culture is global, said PM Modi in Chennai after CM Stalin raised the topic of Hindi imposition.
