I cannot agree with Col P A Kumaran. In the same army I have seen soldiers from the north getting promoted more quickly than some better soldiers of the same category because of the latter's inability to clear hindi exams which are mandatory to get those promotions!

Mr Venkatraman,

1. At the outset, we understand the genuine fear of the non-Hindi speaking States and they would definitely have a disadvantage over the Hindi speaking people at national level.

2. Hindi is a National Language and it would be good if all Indians learn Hindi. It is not new as portrayed by you that it is being imposed now. I am a South Indian from Kerala. Since Hindi was taught in Schools, I learnt it. It helped me to carry on my normal activities during my service (job) of over 40 years in North India. I was second to none and in fact took advantage of my additional knowledge of Hindi. I am sure there are many such other non -Hindi speaking persons , who were able to mingle with Hindi speaking people, without any inhibitions. I remember there was agitations against use of Hindi during mid 60's, particularly in Tamil Nadu (then Madras). What happened after that ? What action has the State Govt taken towards teaching Hindi. Apparently, no major problems were faced and hence, it is going smooth.

3. One should get away from this mind-set that "Hindi is being imposed".

IMPOSITION OF HINDI ON NON HINDI SPEAKING STATES

It is surprising that those in charge of policy making in NDA government do not understand the intensity of the anger and frustration amongst the people in the non Hindi states due to the subtle attempts of Modi government to gradually impose Hindi.

The genuine fear of the people in the non Hindi speaking states is that they would be reduced to second class citizens in the country if Hindi would be imposed , as those speaking Hindi will get distinct advantage over the non Hindi speaking people at the national level.

Mr. Naredndra Modi does not seem to be aware of the intense and popular anti Hindi agitation in non Hindi speaking states particularly in Tamil Nadu, when Mr. Lal Bahadur Shastri was the Prime Minister. Schools and colleges had to remain closed for around three months in Tamil Nadu due to anti Hindi protest by the students. Finally, Mr. Shastri had to give an assurance that Hindi would not be made national language so long as non Hindi speaking people would not want it. The situation has not much changed as far as the imposition of Hindi is concerned.

Today, India has enough problems and there is no feelings of difference in the country on language issue. Mr. Narendra Modi should not create new issues by trying to impose Hindi.

Even today, many people in non Hindi speaking states , particularly in Tamil Nadu , feel like aliens as they do not understand Mr. Modi speaking Hindi everywhere without any translators. When he spoke in Hindi to the school children on Teacher's Day , lakhs of school students in non Hindi speaking states felt left out and wondered as to whether the Prime Minister belong to Hindi knowing people only.
