DMK warns of stir in Delhi if Hindi is imposed on Tamil Nadu

Hindustan Times  

Ruling DMK’s youth wing secretary and chief minister M K Stalin’s son Udayanidhi Stalin on Saturday warned that the party would stage a protest against the BJP-led Centre in Delhi if Hindi is thrust upon Tamil Nadu. The DMK came to power opposing the “imposition” of Hindi in 1967 and today’s agitation was a new beginning, he said. “The protest will be intensified outside Tamil Nadu too and taken to New Delhi, with the chief minister’s permission, if Hindi is imposed disregarding the feelings of the Tamils,” Udayanidhi said addressing a massive gathering. The DMK youth wing and students’ wing held a state-wide agitation protesting against what they called “Hindi imposition,” in the wake of recommendations made by a parliamentary committee.
