Following the ongoing debate over the three-language police under the National Education Policy (NEP) in Tamil Nadu, on Friday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah mockingly urged CM M K Stalin to introduce medical and engineering courses in Tamil medium in the state.
Shah’s remarks came in the backdrop of Stalin targeting the central government over “Hindi imposition” under the three-language policy, which Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan urged that Tamil Nadu should implement to get Rs 2,152 crore funds for education.
While speaking at a CISF Day event at the newly renamed Rajaditya Chola Recruits Training Centre at Thakkolam in Tamil Nadu’s Ranipet district, Shah said, “Tamil Nadu’s culture has strengthened India in every sphere—be it administrative reforms, spiritual heights, education, or national unity… It was Prime Minister Narendra Modi who ensured that CAPF (Central Armed Police Forces) exams could be taken in Tamil too. I now request Chief Minister Stalin to introduce MBBS and engineering courses in Tamil as well.”
