Want to lecture us on hate? Spare us: Stalin hits back at UP CM Adityanath over delimitation, three-language row

Live Mint  

After Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had criticised Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on the three-language row, the latter hit back on Thursday by saying, “We don’t oppose any language; we oppose imposition and chauvinism.” Adityanath, while speaking to ANI, on Wednesday had called the row “narrow politics” and said that Stalin was trying to create divisions based on region and language because he felt his vote bank was at risk. What CM Yogi Adiyanath said on the three-language row Adityanath questioned why Hindi should be hated, highlighting that it's essential to learn every language. Adityanath dismissed Stalin's concerns about delimitation, calling it a “political agenda.” What is the three-language row The three-language formula in NEP 2020 recommends that students learn three languages, at least two of which must be native to India. Tamil Nadu’s refusal to implement key aspects of NEP 2020, particularly the three-language formula, has resulted in the Centre withholding ₹573 crore in central education assistance under the Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan.
