Idea That Hindi Can Alone Unite India Dangerous: Chidambaram
Mumbai: Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram, who is in Tihar Jail, said on Wednesday that the idea that Hindi alone can unite the people of the country is a dangerous trend.
Chidambaram said that while he supported the idea that all languages should be developed, he would never accept that Hindi alone could unify the country.
A tweet from Chidambaram’s official Twitter handles stated, “I have asked my family to tweet on my behalf: a dangerous idea that alone can unite the people of this country.”
“The Tamil people, as well as all others who speak other languages, will never allow the imposition of Hindi,” he tweeted.
