'What Is India's National Language?': Here's What DMK MP Kanihozhi Replied To Question In Spain (VIDEO)

Madrid: DMK MP Kanimozhi, who is leading India's all-party delegation to Spain as part of the country's anti-terror diplomatic outreach programme after Operation Sindoor, was asked about India's national language. Kanimozhi's response went viral on social media.

Responding to the question, the DMK said that the national language of India is "unity and diversity". Notably, the DMK has opposed the Centre's three-language policy and accused the Narendra Modi government of imposing Hindi on the Tamil-speaking state.

"The national language of India is unity and diversity. That is the message this delegation brings to the world, and that is the most important thing today," Kanimozhi said.

In March this year, the DMK criticised the Union Government, alleging that the centre has "made it a habit" to insult Tamil Nadu every day over the three-language policy as part of National Education Policy 2020.

"Union Government has made it a habit to insult Tamil Nadu every day. Yesterday, it was the Education Minister. The Finance Minister has taken it upon herself to insult the Tamil Nadu govt. They make it look like they are doing some charity by giving schemes to Tamil Nadu. Every day, you can't just insult," the DMK MP had told reporters.

"The Union Govt is withholding the money that has to be given to Tamil Nadu, saying that we have to sign the three-language policy and the NEP. They are ruining the future of the children of Tamil Nadu," Kanomozhi had alleged.

The National Education Policy (NEP), 2020, seeks to upgrade India's education system, with the aim of implementing a slew of reforms.
