Hindi Imposition Row  

Amit Shah is known to be a rabble-rouser and makes headlines when he speaks. However, one clarification was enough to subdue a few protesters, leading one to believe that the home minister knows how to play it smart

Actor-turned-politician Rajinikanth has expressed stiff opposition to the Union home minister’s push for one nation one language.  He stated that Tamil Nadu will not be the only state to oppose the imposition. 
 

Karnataka home minister Basavaraj Bommai has said that the state would stick to the three-language policy 

A report by the Dakshina Bharat Hindi Prachar Sabha stated that those who appeared for various Hindi exams in Tamil Nadu has increased by over 100% over the last decade
 

At a time when the state of Tamil Nadu has been up in arms against the Centre after the latter proposed a three-language formula where non-Hindi speaking states were to learn Hindi, Oscar winning music director AR Rahman took to Twitter to post a rather cryptic message

A day after requesting the Prime Minister of India to include Tamil in other states, and drawing flak for it, the chief minister of Tamil Nadu Edappadi K Palaniswami has deleted the tweet

Facing opposition from the South Indian states, the Centre revised the Draft National Education Policy and stated that that students can choose any language they wish to study.
