Thiruvananthapuram: The ruckus arose over the unpleasant incident that took place with the DMK leader Kanimozhi at Chennai Airport. Now many party leaders are reacting to this incident. Former finance minister and senior Congress leader P. Chidambaram has also given his opinion on the matter.
P. Chidambaram tweeted "The unpleasant experience of DMK MP Ms Kanimozhi at Chennai airport is not unusual. If the Central government is genuinely committed to both Hindi and English being the official languages of India, it must insist that all central government employees are bilingual in Hindi and English."
Chidambaram further wrote "Non-Hindi speaking recruits to central government posts quickly learn functional, spoken Hindi. Why cannot Hindi speaking recruits to central government posts learn functional, spoken English?"
Since the new education policy of Modi government is introduced, once again the debate about language has started in South India. Many states of South India have been opposing the central government every time they accuse Central of Hindi Imposition.
