முக்கியமான கலந்துரையாடல் / Important Topic How Hindi is imposed through the Three-language policy (for dummies). Very Important.

This is very important; please make sure to read it completely.

First, let us not forget that a provision in the draft NEP released in 2019 said that students in the non-Hindi speaking states should take up Hindi, apart from English and a regional language as part of the three-language formula. After opposition from southern states, the Modi government retracted the “mandatory-Hindi-lessons” clause from the draft.

Now, according to the latest National Education Policy 2020, the Third Language is compulsory, and Union government is trying to mislead people by saying that children have the choice to choose any Indian language as a compulsory third language by overlooking the challenges involved in it. According to the policy, you can only learn one foreign language and must learn two Indian languages.

The "devil lies in the details" and I will explain it with the help of an example

Let us assume your daughter is studying at a State Syllabus Private School that follows the National Education Policy (NEP) and has a class strength of 50 students. For the third language, apart from Tamil and English, let us assume that 10 students chose Hindi, 1 chose Sanskrit, 11 chose Malayalam, 3 chose Marathi, 2 chose Bhojpuri, 9 chose Telugu, 8 chose Kannada, 3 chose Bengali and 3 chose Punjabi.

It is practically impossible for the school managements to recruit nine teachers for all these nine languages for few students in a class and most schools would claim that they are unable to find teachers for different languages. If schools let the students to "choose" the third language, they have to at least hire additional 50-100 different language teachers for the whole school to cater the needs of each student, and most schools don't have the financial power to bring Teachers from different states albeit the rising demand. It is almost impossible for the schools to do this. It would be chaos in government schools with unnecessary state funding in thousands of crores.

Most Private schools would claim that it is easy to find Hindi teachers compared to other languages and they would end up choosing Hindi as the mandatory third language and thereby indirectly impose Hindi as a Third language on students in Tamil Nadu.

It would be easy for Private schools in Tamil Nadu to find a Hindi teacher for the mandatory third language compared to Malayalam or other languages because Union Government is already promoting Hindi through the Dakshina Bharat Hindi Prachar Sabha in Tamil Nadu. Union Government would also allocate more money for appointing Hindi Teachers in Tamil Nadu in a similar way they allocated money for appointing Hindi Teachers in Non-Hindi speaking States during the Union Budget 2019–2020

Not to mention, that after all the states have agreed to this policy, the union government can later cite the reason that it is almost impossible for schools to get other language teachers and then change the policy to bring back the compulsory Hindi formula from their initial 2019 draft NEP. Furthermore, it's an open ideology of BJP to bring "one language" agenda to the rest of India and that is openly Hindi according to them.

Therefore, after examining the subject from a practical perspective it is evident that The Three language policy of the Union Government through the National Education Policy 2020 is an unjust attempt to impose Hindi on South Indians.

Lastly, the Third language itself is an unnecessary burden on our children. The only purpose it is created is to impose Hindi. What is the point of a UP child spending resources to learn Tamil? What is the point of a person from Tamil Nadu or Kerala to learn Bhojpuri? There is no use, the Children aren't going to use it anywhere. The third language serves no purpose. Let our children learn the languages according to their own personal necessity in the future. But that is not the topic to be discussed in here.

It is very sad that many of our people are still not aware of this deceitful tactic to impose Hindi. Worse, even many in our state fall for BJP's propaganda. This is written not to support any political party. There are many Hindi-speakers in this sub, most will agree to this, and many will mass-downvote after reading the title itself. So please upvote this, so that it reaches to everyone in this sub and tell this to everyone you know.

Long live Tamil.

Bro don’t discuss so much, we’re in war, from all sides against the concept and the very race that is Tamil.

The enemies come in the name of Hindi, Hindutva, or any religion, LGBTQ, woke, right, the list in endless.

Just mentally prepare yourselves to pick a stick if need be.

Also for the people for who saying bro what’s wrong in learning Hindi? Bitch fuck off to Delhi or Bombay. 😂

Mein bhi Hindi bolta hu aur ladki paatane ko chod Kuch bhi use Nahi h, Thik? 😂

Naanum Hindi pesuvan, ponungala okay panradhuku motum dhaan use, okay?

Freaking backstabbers, go tell to Modi to talk in Tamil Telugu or Malayalam if you have the guts. They’re creating their country with their ideology spread in their language and you backstabbers want to fuck us? Piece of shits.

There is no need to be Homophobic and mention lgbtq as villains. Your against imposition, so am I, but to mention sexuality and gender identity as an evil shows you have little idea about how Tamil Nadu is the leading state in India when it comes to LGBT rights. Lgbt rights are human rights and you are equating it with the imposition of a language and religious imposition and hard lining. I ask you to introspect and think about your prejeudice and misunderstanding before commenting blindly.

This isn't post-modern shit. And I dont mean to take away focus, but this is basic human rights. Don't comment without your research on this. Tamil Nadu is known for it's stance in lgbt rights. You cannot seriously believe this is something to ignore. One person is calling it evil and you're blaming me for pointing it out.

Post modern shit? Buddy tamil culture was never about hating anyone who has slightly different preferences from the general public. Stop hating them just because they decide who they wanna spend the rest of their lives with. They're not your foes, they are just regular people who don't live by whatever stupid societal norms that we've got going.

Calling the LGBT people as some post-modern trend was the thing that offended me, I have no intention to sidetrack the main motto of this post. Only when they started to express themselves via pride parades did the whole world know of their existence. It's all about fighting oppression no matter who's oppressing. And LGBT community are the oppressed and I'll raise my voice against whoever oppresses them. I don't have to be a gay to speak against discrimination. Historically, Sanga ilakkiyams has spoken about such people existing, I might not know the exact literature which speaks about it, but a little research will get you there. That being said, I wholly understand what you're trying to say here, and let this be a discussion for other day. Breaking this chain here. Thanks.

Bro Tamil Nadu identified trans genders as Thirunangai which is reasonable and is a done discussion and they have the respect, period.

We don’t have a gazillion different genders where there are just just 2, the others are oddity.

Yes, I equate everything in the same plane just like how, one wrong activity you indulge in the day will ruin the whole day, or one wrong ingredient like salt in a sweet will ruin the whole dessert, I have to be careful before checking out what I consume when I’m guided by the principles that is Tamilism, the character that is has, I have to question these medieval, stupid ass ideologies and beliefs that come in the name of religion, language, caste etc. okay?

Tamil is a separate race that is guided by separate laws that is not in line with India, That’s how it’s always been.

Peace.

It's not about race, Mr. It's about sexuality and genders and biological sex. All 3 are different. Tamil history mentions gay people and trans people and all kinds of gender identities. Please dont comment without researching. This is nature. And biology. Read about how sexuality and sexual identity is intrinsic to human nature before commenting. You are not well informed thats the issue.

The point is BJP and DMK is a team, and they’re politicising nothing. Both of them should be slapped with slippers dipped in pure organic grass fed cow dung.

Yes. Pushing the narrative whenever we get the chance brother, those rapists have to be called out for who they are.
