Language: Bridge Or Divide?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 май 2017
- On April 17 this year, the President accepted the recommendations of the Parliamentary Committee on Official Language, giving a significant push to the use of Hindi in public discourse. The move has yet again invoked the ire of the non-Hindi speaking population of India, with the DMK threatening a replay of the anti-Hindi protests in Tamil Nadu in the 1960s. Another facet of this language debate is the deep Hindi-English class divide. On this edition of We The People, we ask: Is Hindi spoken widely enough to be the 'national' language of India? Is the Hindi push counter-productive to the organic growth of the language? Is the knowledge of only regional languages disadvantageous?

To all north Indians, I don't accept that north Indians barely know 2 languages but as u mentioned ur known languages all are ur Hindi + another foreign languages of ur interest. But u people won't know any one of dravidian languages. If u people don't know or don't want to study dravidian languages, then we south people also has the right to don't want ur compulsory Hindi.
You know nothing about other states of the country. All states have there regional language,but unlike you guys we dont say bad words about other states. In North India we know learn regional language, hindi and english as well. How much you know about your own country, until you go and visit, you cant know a place by only reading an article on google..

We need to come out of our primitive mindset is what the inference was. The language that India needs to learn today is Civility, Respect and Mindfulness. When there's a need to learn something to save asses, one learns however difficult it may be isn't It?? One will learn mandarin but not hindi.. Which is already constituted. Well, am not for all these discussions but yes, I like encouraging people to learn even if the articulation is bitter.
Urdu was imposed on Bengalis of East Pakistan. ,,,,The result Bangladesh. Those who do not learn from history, are condemned to repeat it.
@Hawk Who Knows All the script is different
@@suhassreehari876 yes because Muslim Kings made hindi to communicate with slaves at that time by combining sanskrit + Urdu.
Cool Guy that’s because both doesn’t have script of their own , Hindi adopted Sanskrit script , Urdu adopted a Persian script but in reality both Hindu and Urdu are script less languages - with all due to respect to Hindu and Urdu languages infact they are 90% same , Hindi got some Sanskrit loan words and Urdu got Parsi loan words but they are not different languages all together

Keep Hindi far away from us southerners. We are doing quite well with our southern languages and English as a link language. The Hindi language is practically of no use to us southerners especially when it comes to a career.

g reddy can you speak all the dravidian language. does all the tamil person understand malyalam, kannada, telugu, bangoli. i am 100 % sure no buddy. then how can you expect it from hindi people. use your mind
Rohit Jain His point is different. He is not saying for all Dravidian languages to be learned...
suryavajra i know his point is different. but you didn't get my point. my point was how you people communicate with each other. for example how tamil person will talk to malyalum or bangoli or kannada person. will he speak in tamil or bangoli or kannada, or he will speak in english. but not every person know english not in your state also. same here we also have regional languages like you people. we use it in front of our known person. but if we talk to someone else we don't speak our regional language. we use common language either hindi and english. we prefer hindi as anyone can undeestand hindi who dont know english can understand hindi. so we can communicate with so many people of various state including gujrati, marathi, punjabi, hariyanvi, rajasthani, uttranchal and many more but not everyone of us can communicate with south indian person as we have language barrier. why you people affaried of , lossing your culture. come on man, gujrati , punjabi and we rajasthani also have own language and culture just like you have. so please don't give these bullshit reasons. and don't try to be superior by showing that we care about language. i am rajasthani. i speak so many languages.but we don't feel that insecurity that language can affect our culture. one more thing hindi is not our religious language. its a common language for communication.
Rohit Jain There are commonalities with the various southern languages so people kind of understand anyway. Second if northerners don't like southerners why should southerners have to learn a northern language? Everyone has the right to have their culture and language, just leave it be...
suryavajra who told you noth indian dont like south india.if this is so then why do we watch south indian movies
English is the connecting language and not Hindi. English unites India and Hindi divides India.
My, my!..you have put your points across very succintly. English as a link-language has a gobal audience - science, technology, the fine arts and what have you. India does not need a national language at this point in time. At least, not for the near forseeable future.

eNGLISH uNITES iNDIA BOTH NORTH AND SOUTH, hINDI DIVIDES INDIA. BETWEEN NORTH AND SOUTH.
3 language foumla was a failure in india as North india did not learn the 3rd language,, and
no one wants hindi in south india.
Give me one logical reason why you do not want Hindi in South India? The hate towards a language is so stone age.
I hope you know the fact that "Language is source point where the culture and tradition is formed"
Give me one logical reason why you want Hindi in South India? The hate towards another regional language is so beneath stone age.
One logical reason - For the same reason many people complain that Indian people are loosing their tradition and culture because of the western language and influence. Especially english.
We'll loose our regional culture and tradition when Hindi is forced down. It is cunning way to exterminate history, great personalities of great civilisations which are much older than 2000 years from which even sanskrit rooted (I'm talking about most of the south Indian languages, not speaking for one).
Explanation by example-
Specifically I'm from Tamilnadu, now I'm speaking for Tamil and I ask you, Will Hindi teach us Thirukkural? 1330 couplets - which contains all the worldly virtues and ethics. If so how? May be you are gonna teach us Tamil through hindi medium?
Will Hindi teach us about Avvaiyar - A traditonally respectable 2000 year old women poet who mentioned about 'Atom'.?
Now Tell us what can a 500 old language give us? other than invasion of Mughals and freedom struggle. Even in freedom struggle you'll mention about Rani laxmi bai but you won't have a single detail on the Legendary V.O.C, Kittur Rani Chennamma, Pulikesi-II(There is movie on Pulikesi-23), Sepoy Mutiny at Vellore, Veerapandiya Kattabomman(Well! rings any bell? No? There is stamp out there and a movie also. Go get it). Have you ever heard of these people? but we learn about these people many times in Tamil text books provided to us by our state schools.
We are not against Hindi. We're just saying that it should be optional just like English is. So the question is why do Hindi speaking people want to force it and erase our south states tradition and culture(Speaking on behalf of all south states). Will you be willing to learn English while telling you to give less importance to Hindi? If you are not okay, then why are you expecting your fellow Indian to do so?
REPLY
srinivasan natarajan Gimme a break man..
Im ignoring all your historical bullshit and your naivity and lack it knowledge about other languages and regions of the country.
You are clearly living in the past.
1. Itll be easier for north, west and east Indians to understand your culture if you can communicate in a language which is widely spoken in the country. (Maharashtrians, Gujaratis, Bhojpuris, Kashmiris, Punjabis, bengalis etc. understand and speak hindi).
2. Itll bring the country closer as the language is understood n spoken by a majority.
3. Hindi is an optional subject in Maharashtra, Gujarat and other states already.
4. "YOUR" culture, as you boast is about 500000 yrs old so it cant be that brittle. Using hindi as the third language for official purposes cannot harm your culture n traditions.
Get a grip man.. You are making a senseless case and a stupid arguement.
Get a break man. Let me be past freak for you, I don't mind. For a fact I'm not arguing but plotting down facts. You are just being pejorative. Naivety? What Naivety? I lack knowledge? Google it out. it's all in wiki. I don't know how to describe... Just because you are ignoring the facts I put, it doesn't mean that you are making a point. It's pointless jotting facts for you so let point out the flaws from your own numbered bullets that you wrote,
1. Itll be easier for north, west and east Indians to understand your culture if you can communicate in a language which is widely spoken in the country. (Maharashtrians, Gujaratis, Bhojpuris, Kashmiris, Punjabis, bengalis etc. understand and speak hindi). - [FYI - This debate of "widely spoken language" has been sealed in 1945 when Madras presidency wanted to join Indian union, English was decided link language ]. Ain't we talking and knowing each other by speaking in english? right now you and me? and with my fellow north brothers. After all the globalization our government has bought in, lets be a nice global citizen and refine english. According to UNSECO India's literacy rate is 72% so I think I'm capable of talking to Maharashtrians, Gujaratis, Bhojpuris, Kashmiris, Punjabis, bengalis etc. in English. right? Why do I need to learn a new language that I feel difficult?
2. Itll bring the country closer as the language is understood n spoken by a majority.- Majority speak english not hindi. Hindi natives with whom I worked with themselves rarely spoke in Hindi even in their home.
3. Hindi is an optional subject in Maharashtra, Gujarat and other states already. - Yes, it was already optional in all south states, even in TN, thats why I took and learnt it. For a fact I know to read and write Hindi for the past 25 years and have roamed in the north for many times and Since you mentioned you were ignoring my previous reply I'm making the point twice, it should be only optional and always optional. Not offical.
4. "YOUR" culture, as you boast is about 500000 yrs old so it cant be that brittle. Using hindi as the third language for official purposes cannot harm your culture n traditions. - Well thanks for patronising our Tamil culture, archaeologists even found out its mother of all languages but that aside, I said its ours - meaning its yours and mine. But you mentioned ""YOUR" culture," - hurts brother because I don't get it whether you are a Anti - Tamilian or anti-Indian(Since you had no respect for the historical facts of freedom fighters saying "Historical bullshit") but I know you like only hindi(May be you got no right to claim on a language since spat on the historical facts but I don't know). Even in my previous reply which you didn't read or couldn't understand properly (due to my bad English maybe) I never felt Hindi is out of India.
Coming to your "the third language for official purposes"
TN literacy rate - 80%+ considering last 15 years, But even in the Urban areas the parents of this literacy rate are still illiterate and own houses and business.
Two work here in my office, one from UP aged around 40+ and another is a tamil guy nearing 50s, both are illiterate and settled in TN but can read english, browse their mobile but can't read Hindi. In fact there are people who can talk better english than you and me but has never visited schools.eg-mamallapuram. I see many people are being able to adjust with English irrespective of state, language. Lets say Hindi is official, just imagine property tax bills, Electricity Bills, municipal notices, government orders on properties, railway, bus tickets, school books, forms and what not. Common people who don't know both english and hindi, the educated ones who do not know hindi, almost more than 65% people will go mad. Even the guy from UP will go mad. Government wants to keep a section of people in dark for sometime?
in article 343/1 of the Constitution of India - There is no national language.
I don't who made Hindi a national language. Lies feed to mass.
Hope I was able to make enough sense.
Ashok Vajpey an expert in the interview points out that nobody understands even the people who created it were no language experts - I don't know if its true. Just because Hindi is the power of the central. I don't want to learn such a kind of weak language.
srinivasan natarajan Yet again.. half knowledge and undercooked facts.
1. Literacy rate DOESNOT mean understanding or Speaking English. Please educate yourself more about definition of literacy in India. (i can tell you, but ill refrain from preaching FACTS to you).
2. Again wrong! Majority in India understand and speak Hindi. Care to look it up before making a fool out of yourself please?
3. Wrong again! Please read the definition of an official language. What government is planning is to introduce hindi as the third language, after English and the native language. Classic case, Bangalore metro signs which were printed in kannada, English and Hindi but for some stupid illogical reason was opposed by the locals.
4. Im sorry but your judgement skills arent as strong as your English. All Im saying is use the widely spoken language in a country (which is NOT ENGLISH). If its tamil, make it the official language to bridge the gaps between people. Im not patronizing nor condescending any language or culture. What I meant by 'historical BS' was all this history is irrelevant here in this debate.
Also, by highlighting "YOUR" i dont become an anti tamilian or anti national. It was just to point out how youve been singing praises about a language and culture while undermining another.
Also, in your defence you are quoting a debate of 1947? Really now! Its been 60 long years. World has changed and moved on and its high time people like you should too. Stop living in the past bro.
I studies Hindi for 12 years in school.
until I become the CM of UP or Bihar...
what a waste of time?!.
English is commercial laugauage Hindi is majority people speaks India but traditional or ancient laugauage tamil ever
Tamil is not a traditional or ancient language, Sanskrit is. Hindi is not a language of the majority; only 41 percent of the people speak Hindi, including some dialects.
@@DipakBose-bq1vv lol its even older than tamil
there are more languages not only Tamil
And Kannada also.
Tamil is mother of all languages and one of the first languages in the world. North Indian can use Sanskrit. But south Indians have and identity an Tamil is the classical language. Our jobs don't require Hindi but north India prefer Hindi they are safe guarding themselves. South Indians can speak four to five languages. But bnorthindians d

It is English vs Indian languages. We don't know how this Hindi comes in middle. We want replce English with our own language not with Hindi. Hindi is Just one of a language from india

hindi is official language in India that's why
@@dkdgaming9125 Kannada is also a official language in India
Plz leave southindia..go to north..don't teach what to read and study.. We know
Well English is here to stay. There is no point riling against it. It is the language of business and higher education and Indians have benefitted immensely from it.
Hindi is another regional language like Kannada, Tamil or Assamese. India is a conglomeration of many linguistic sub-nations. It is highly IMMORAL on the part of central government to patronise Hindi at the cost of other Indian languages. The 107 point recommendation to which the Prez gave his nod seeks to make Hindi in effect the national language, atleast they are moving towards it. If central govt. does not revoke this then they are laying the seed for secession in this country.
Hindi was introduced to Southern India only after Independence in 1947. Southern states are teaching Hindi for the sake of national unity. We don't see a similar effort to teach southern languages & other Indian languages in Hindi speaking states which was actually a quid pro quo mandated by the Kothari commission in 1968. It is IMMORAL that the onus of national integration should be placed squarely on the shoulders of non-Hindi speakers while Hindi speakers get a free-pass throughout India.
If at all, all the languages mentioned under Schedule VIII of the constitution are equally national languages of India, no special place can or should be given to Hindi. This will be vehemently opposed in the South and other parts of India. I highly commend the sensible comments made by Mr. Ashok Vajpayee. For the same reasons, non-Hindi speaking Indians should also oppose efforts to make Hindi an official language at the United Nations.
Krishna R Throw some stats, not this BS!
Everything mentioned is factual not fiction. U r writing BS, not me. You go figure.
Half knowledge and utter bullshit.
This assumption that north India speaks Hindi is as stupid as the assumption that every south indian is a madrasi. There are more languages in North than there are in South India and the only reason why Hindi is being "PUSHED" is because a vast majority of Indians speak the language (irrespective of their caste, creed, region and sect).
As the host of the show rightly pointed out, around 53.60% Indian populace (READ IT TILL YOU REGISTER IT IN YOUR DELUDED HEAD) speaks and understands Hindi whereas only 12% Indian populace speaks and understands English. The percentage of NATIVE HINDI SPEAKERS IN INDIA IS ONLY 14%, the rest 39% hindi speakers are multi lingual (READ IT TILL YOU REGISTER IT IN YOUR DELUDED HEAD).
The idea to promote Hindi across India is only to bring the nation closer, and not to sub-standardize any language. Noone is forcing you to speak or learn Hindi, as of now the public discourse functions in 2languages (English and the native language). The law will only ADD (READ IT TILL YOU REGISTER IT IN YOUR DELUDED HEAD) Hindi as the third public discourse language after English and the native language.
Stop victimizing yourself and stop opposing a language only because your grandfather asked you to.
The government should not be in the business of promoting any language as the "national language". Their job is not to pick and choose favorites.
suryavajra Kindly get your facts right..
1. Hindi will not be a national language, but an Official language.
2. It is the sole responsibility of the government to decide the official languages, as official languages are used within the government.
3. Govt is trying to push the language as more than 50% populace understands and can speak in Hindi.
Dont put your opinions as facts. All this hatred towards Hindi is uncalled for.

I vote for English, speaking Hindi is literally useless (for South Indians)
Language is never useless. It helps to communicate. It that you dont know doesnot make it useless.
My Collection Channel.. share love and care... In South India it is useless because our first preference goes to our mother tongue then comes English which is known as „Universal Language“ whereas Hindi will be useful only in India and that too only in northern states. (not even entire country)
@@Vijay_Sekar you guys are to confined to your place otherwise you would have known every statd in India has there own regional or in precise mother language and we all love our mother language but we dont hate othed language as well. There is no North South India for us. Its only India.

Moreover we do know that northern sates has regional languages and I have a lot of North Indian friends who couldn’t able to speak their mother tongue (marathi, especially marwadi language) they speak only Hindi and English.

I am Bengali and I am proud of my language. I consider English as my second language so I find no use of Hindi in my life.
Well said... I am Tamil. This shows most of the sates want English as our second lang.

Tamil Language is 2000 years old we cannot be treated as second class citizens and we are trated step motherly Treatment by planning in allocation of funds, Railways, Floods so Non hindi speaking people you cannot impose Hindi
20000 years old. Not 2000. TAMIL is the oldest not just language but civilization too. It's the mother of everything being spoken now. TAMIL is the greatest!!!!
Soon north and south India be separate countries
English doesn't divide India, neither does Hindi or any other language. It is Hindi Nationalists that divide India.
Indian=Hindi also means that non - Hindi states are not Indian. It amazes me that so many Hindi language Nazis do not seem to be able to see this obvious insult that they are perpetrating on people in non-Hindi states by forcing Hindi on them.
Although we commenting in global language English it is understandable to everyone in comment
Only Marathi in Maharashtra
Stop hindi imposition
north guys learn tamil & south guys learn hindi....letz complete the speech and be proud about our nation INDIA 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳....JAI HIND
Hindi is the language of 4-5 states; it cannot be imposed upon the rest of India. Rajendra Prasad is responsible for this situation. In the Constituent Assembly, he was the chairman. There was voting to decide what language should be the official language.
English was elected by all. Then Sanskrit and Hindi were supported by an equal number of members. Then, Rajendra Prasad decided that Hindi should be chosen. Without Rajendra Prasad, Hindi could not be the official language. Sanskrit would be the official language. Sanskrit was not opposed by the South Indians or East Indians.
Hi,
This discussion was very much fruitful to improve our maturity in terms of understanding our nation better. Being myself a polyglot including few foreign language and, born and brought up in a hard core HINDI BELT Bihar my understanding in terms of link language ENGLISH or HINDI and other languages of our nation is that, we can't impose our comfortability at the cost of others rights. If someone is comfortable at Hindi or Telugu or Tamil he has a right to continue to go with the language of his or her choice as granted by the Constitution. We must not force anyone to learn a particular language of my choice or convenience. Apart from this i can firmly say that i have seen many
As far as link language is concerned ENGLISH is doing very well across the nation
Its hindi speakers who dont want to learn other languages,they are only comfortable in hindi....if you go south and west people speak hindi and understand it apart from Tamil Nadu
Not true. Hindi is not understood by Southerner outside the major cities. Try getting around with Hindi in rural Karnataka, AP or Kerala.
If you go to rural place anywhere in world people don't know other languages...if hindi is understood in cities its enough to communicate
Prasanth Valsan ...Do not spread false news...
Bajoy kamshi ..in cities speak English to survive. Why do we need to learn Hindi. Hindi is redundant and adds no more value for South Indians living in South India. Of course when we live in north, we should learn Hindi.
Well , I am a proud north Indian and I am well versed in in English , Hindi , French and Bengali
As a Keralite, I don’t understand why Northerners want to put Hindu as a sole official language and remove English. Northerners can speak in Hindi with no problem but that’s not the case with Southerners. English has bonded us Southerners. There’s a quote which says, “If ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. We Southerners find Hindi practically useless to learn.
Hindi is NOT a national language.
How about Punjabi, Kashmiri, Rajastani, Marati, Kannada, Telugu, Konkani, Malayalam, Tamil, Bengali, Assamese, Manipuri, Tripuri ? So, with so many states speaking their local languages, how Hindi can be called Rashtra Bhasha ?? It is NOT !!!

Learning Hindi is totally useless,
Tamil & English,
From my state of Tamilnadu & Kerala,
We placed in all part of World,
Only Norther part of people coming to our States ask them to study Tamil or English
West Pakistan(Now Pakistan) imposed Urdu on East Pakistan(Now Bangladesh). East Pakistan revolted against West Pakistan and Bangladesh is the result.
Same thing will happen in the case of South India. A idea of separate country for South India is present since India got independence. These kind of stunts just increases the hatred and strengthens tha Anti North India attitude amongst South Indians. South India got nothing to loose, it's a developed region in every factor.
The regional languages in south exist for so long and people have fought over language in South India. Just go to Tamil nadu and try to speak Tamil to a shop vendor and you can see pride in his eyes. A inherent pride that a visitor to his state is trying to learn his language. That pride made them develop than any other states in North India. Please don't mess with that pride.
Since when did Arjun and shradda native language become hindi I thought they were punjabis
Most Punjabis have no pride in their language/culture, especially khattri people. Both of them are Khattris from western Punjab who spoke Urdu for centuries.
Punjabi identity crisis is the root of all troubles in Indian subcontinent
Punjabi rooting for Hindi is like kannadiga or Telugu telling that Tamil should be the primary language of south India -which a kannadiga or Telugu would never do
Punjabi language has been a major victim of Urdu imposition in Pakistan and Hindi imposition in Indian Punjab and in Haryana
Also the Marathi s seem
to have a similar identity problem Inspite of having a very rich history and culture entwined with South Indians ( Shathavahana Chalukya and rastrakoota periods of Indian history)they are madly rushing to embrace the northerners language
It is well known that Tamils are very proud to be using the oldest spoken language of the world Tamil is also an international language recognised by half a dozen countries Tamils will never accept Hindi under any pretext
As for other equally major languages of India :Any average kannadiga or Telugu Malayali or Oriya etc is confident of his linguistic identity and he fought for its independence from
British Now these groups rightly want to develop kannada Telugu Oriya etc since they are independent But silently and surreptitiously and sneakily Hindi is being foisted in them These groups are intelligent and united enough to recognise the threat to their language and culture
A country with two three or even four languages can think of one national
Language But in a country like India with 25 major languages all having huge populations and rich literary history it is utterly foolish and impractical to foist one language as the only national or link language
@@i.ronnick9683 nothing like this ,punjabi love thier mother tongue very much,but don't purposely speak punjabi infront of those who don't know punjabi,for native or typical punjabis also hindi to learn difficult is diffcult, thy mix their mother tongue n hindi n speak a differnt kind pronunciation hindi sometimes ,but it's fine as we all have speak our regional languages n ofcourse accent in hindu or English will shift differently n sound differently

Why to use English... We are hindustani.. Not angrej
@Shashank Gutta
It is shame for any Indian who don't know hindi. Any Indian who say hindi as foreign language in India is shame on him..
As long as India remain one country, any other language cannot replace ‘English’ as official language.
The national freedom movement relied largely upon English language in order to reach out to non-Hindi speaking areas which was 2/3 of India including Bangladesh and Pakistan before Independence.
We cannot altogether stop using English as official language. British Rule has efficiently replaced Sanskrit and Urdu during their rule of more than 200 years in India. They have left India during 1947 Indian Independence but their legacy still being continued by way of Constitution of India, Parliamentary Democracy, Law and Justice, Administration, Defense and Space program, Research and other fields.
Hindi is an under-developed mixer of Sanskrit,Urdu,Persian and other local dialects which cannot in anyway replace English.
I'm Tamilan.
I speak Tamil for conversation with my people and I speak English to any other outside my state.
I don't want to learn Hindi just because some Majoritarian wants us to learn Hindi as they(Hindi speaking superiority minded people) are lazy enough to learn English ..

I know I have no business being here, but I’m a European (portuguese) citizen and I have lived and studied in various European states. Everyone I’ve come across speaks English to some degree and these days 100% of Europeans study English in school. It has not erased our culture and heritage, but has only allowed us to share that culture and make new friends from other cultures. Knowing English also allows Europeans to travel and do business all over the world, and I pray Indians will have the same opportunities and will be able to strengthen the presence of English in their country, so that no matter where they are and who they talk to they will be able to communicate and share their culture🙏
All Indian languages are important but Hindi was the language used in freedom struggle to unite everyone it got us freedom from the Britishers...whenever we meet a foreigner they will definitely greet us NAMASTE its not the same for every language....its not south vs north its about the popularity it has gained and numbers Hindi is 10 th most spoken language in the world
Language is State's subject and Centre should not interfere in education policy. There is another solution for this issue. Government shall make all the 22 languages compulsory in educational system throughout their education so that there will not be any contraversy, at the same time government's love for Hindi and Sanskrit will also be fulfilled.
I am from Tamil Nadu, I have listed few details how imposition of Hindi will affect Tamil, this is applicable for other regional language.
Below I have provided explanation as to why the claim that Hindi is good for future survival of tamil culture and prosperity is a false propaganda by the Hindi belt politicians. Their agenda is to strength their political base in the south by imposing their language. In doing so, they will have a political future in the southern states at the expense of regional parties. Already we are losing the use of our language in several fields due to English, with Hindi there will not be any requirement of Tamil in the future.
Let us imagine Tamil language is in a coffin. I will list the nails that has been slowly added by the Indian politician to that coffin since the British and Indian independence .
1. Children who study in English medium schools, science, geography, physics, chemistry, history, maths, biology, engineering all are taught in English. English being the world language it is good for our future survival. People who take tamil as secondary language in english medium, will be able to read and write tamil at basic level. They’ll not be creators in tamil as their language of thinking would be English. Their knowledge creation would only be in English. These people live in the cities who jump from one city to another for their economic prosperity and survival.
2. Children who study in tamil medium will have English as their secondary language and will be able to read/write English at basic level. These children live in secondary cities and villages. They find it difficult to pursue higher studies in science, geography, physics, chemistry, history, maths, biology in English when they join colleges. Forced to create new knowledge in English. To fix this the number of children in English medium in secondary cities and villages has increased in the last 50 years. With this increase, tamil in future will not be required to explain science, geography, physics, chemistry, history, maths, biology and would only be used for communication, basic reading and writing. If Hindi is going to be introduced, we don’t need tamil for communication, everyone would prefer Hindi after 3-5 generations.
3. In our society, Tamil is currently being used in religion, entertainment and literature (This will fade) with the growth of English and Hindi. Tamil literature will slowly decline as the number of reader move to English and Hindi. If there is no market for tamil literature there will no longer be any creative writing in it. Only copying and translation in the future.
4. No knowledge creation in tamil (i.e. scientific, technical paper, journal) in the following field science, geography, physics, chemistry, history, maths, biology, engineering. All scientific paper has to be published in English. Reference to knowledge is only available in English.
5. Administration will slowly move towards English/hindi.
6. High court in Tamil Nadu cannot use tamil language to interpret the law and provide judgement. Only English/hindi. Tamil vocabulary will not grow in this field of law.
The requirement of tamil language has been reduced to the following field
Communication, religion, entertainment and literature. This will also die in another few generation and would be replaced by other language English/Hindi.
Tamil requirement in science, technology, business and law field has been slowly eroded because there is an easy replacement (i.e. english). The question is do we accept that status quo. If we accept it and continue then slowly the tamil language will loose it significance as it’s vocabulary will not grow in the above field and because of that their will not be any new literature and knowledge in tamil language in the coming generation. So it will be avoided by the coming generation for their survival. BJP/RSS peoples are spreading false message through news channel regarding the benefits of learning Hindi, when there is none. I agree the state politicians for their selfish gain has given away the state rights, which is hurting the public. Why should we burden our son/daughter to learn additional language in their childhood when its benefits are minimal in the future, it would be required only for socialising and entertainment.
When we are paying taxes to the central government what has the central government done to promote the regional language so its usage can be strengthen in various fields. In high courts we can't use our language for arguments and judgement. There is a hidden agenda to reduce the use of regional language as official language so that usage of Hindi/English becomes the main language in trade, education, business and administration.
Let's have Sanskrit It will bridge the gap between the north india and South india
