Protest against three-language policy in Tamil Nadu reaches Dallas
CHENNAI: A section of Tamil diaspora in Dallas (US), organised a protest on Saturday against the three language policy and alleged imposition of Hindi in Tamil Nadu.
Holding placards against the central govt's National Education Policy (NEP) the protesters said, "Don't threaten Tamils. Don't impose Hindi. We don't need the three language policy."
Supporting the protest, Tamil Nadu chief minister M K Stalin shared its news clipping on his social media handle and wrote, "Let Tamil live for long."
There have been sporadic protests across Tamil Nadu condemning the central govt for withholding funds to the Samagra Shiksha Abhi-yan scheme.
The protests intensified after Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan said Rs 2,152 crore for the scheme will be released only if the state agreed to implement NEP.
