RashtraBhasha....Lingua Franca for Social Capital

Why we need Lingua Franca? Why TN against Hindi Imposition?


Refer Article 343 ( Provision for 'Hindi' as Linguafranc) and Article 351 (Directives on Duty of Union to develop Hindi) of Indian Constitution drafted by Modern Manu Dr.B.R. Ambedkar. (Details in Comment box [1])

It is not as most of us believe it to be "Hindutva" Constitution or "Hindian" Constitution.

It is time for RATIONALITY... layoff Ego and Approach things with open mind...

What is Three Language Policy? 
Options before us,
1. Mother Tongue + English + Any Indian Language. (It is the best option, but it will not build common language for the diverse country) Common Identity is very important to REPRESENT ACROSS THE WORLD. #UNITY_IN_DIVERSITY.

2. Mother Tongue + English + Hindi (If this FORMULA followed Hindi speaking states the formula will get modified as Mother Tongue/Hindi +  English i.e. it will become Two-Language Policy. In fact, It will be DISCRIMINATORY)

3. Mother Tongue (Regional Language) + English + Hindi (Linguafranc) for the Non-Hindi States

4. Hindi (Mother Tongue / Linguafranc) + English + Any Indian Language ( As many of us believe, they will choose Tamil, Bihari, Odia or Telugu based on where they get better opportunity to sell "Panni Poori)

Anyways, OBJECTIVE (as mentioned CONSTITUTIONAL DIRECTIVE) is to build "Linguafranc". Obviously the Draft New Education Policy intention is promotion/ development of Hindi, not simply IMPOSITION (as the case of 1963)

Why we need Linguafranc?
It is to create SOCIAL CAPITAL.
In essence, the networks of relationships among people who live and work in a particular society, enabling that society to function effectively.
Let's ponder over some of the Intellectual questions of Dravidian leaders.... 

Q1: Why we need TWO SEPARATE doors for Big dog and Small dog?

My Argument:
If so, we don't even need TWO LANGUAGE policy.... ENGLISH is enough as SOME Legends claimed way back (Talk in English with Housemaid, Milkman, Streetvendors... will it not be an imposition again?)

இதெல்லாம் அறிவு பூர்வமான கேள்வி என்றால் என்ன சொல்வது?
நம்ம வீட்டுகுள்ள போக வர "ஒரு" கதவு இருக்குல, அப்புறம் காத்து வரதுக்கு எதுக்கு தனியா ஜன்னல்?

Q2: If language of majority should be declared as NATIONAL language why not make Crow National Bird instead of PEACOCK?

My Argument:
For better clarification, What is National Insignia? Whether all the National symbols has same/common selection criteria? Is it not based on Uniqueness... but... Isn't the Common language or Linguafrac has different utility? Should it not be based on Majority/Popularity. (Provisions of Indian Constitution already mentioned above.... "We the People of India solemnly.... " Details in the comment box [2])

There is no concept of NATIONAL LANGUAGE..... "Tamil and English are my two eyes" said by "Legends" because they imagine that the concept of INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE is existing despite being intelligent enough to question the CONSTITUTIONALITY of NATIONAL LANGUAGE.

Q3: Those people find utility in Hindi would learn it, why should you bother? Why should you mandate it through New Education Policy?

If inclusion of Hindi as THIRD language in Draft Education Policy is Imposition. (ஹிந்தி திணிப்பு!!) Then "Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009" which  is not just providing opportunity for EDUCATION, it is IMPOSITION OF EDUCATION. 
Ps: 40 Schools managed by Associates of DMK party-men, has Opportunity to learn Hindi. 

Q4: Our people are not even good in Mother Tongue... why should we make one more language compulsory?

And

Q5: Tamil is more ancient language and has more inscription.... Rather It should be made mandatory.... Why Hindi (formerly Hindustani) is preferred?



My Argument,
It is not about MASTERING any other language or DUMBING your Mother Tongue. All we are making now a days is EMOTIONAL OUTBURST which make then easy to politicize any issue for that matter... In schools we learnt ENGLISH... are we master in it? It is about learning few words.... it would integrate NORTH and SOUTH... enahance #Social_Capital (I.e. Building Trust, Harmony in the social and in the broader sense NATIONAL INTEGRATION) This gap/divide/fissure is the SURVIVAL point for many POLITICAL PARTIES in TAMIL NADU.... In essence, the #Separatist_Ideologies

It is very clear,

Hindutva "Sangi" or Dravidian "Poralis" is nothing less than the Expression/ Voice of EGOISM.

தான் மட்டும் தான் "அறிவாளி" மத்தவன் எல்லாம் மூலை இல்லாதவன் பொல் எண்ணிக்கொண்டு "Anti-Indian, Sangi, Naxals, Poralis, Bhakthals" என்றெல்லாம் "பட்டம்" கொடுப்பது....  SILENCING the Opposite views and Dissent by STIGMATIZATION is nothing less than FACISM. (Details in the comment box[3])

As quoted by one of my friend "When emotional instigations overrule, rational distinctions are given a good bye. And we are not even able to distinguish between a draft and a decision !"

What Tamil taught us?
பாலையும் நீரையும் பிரித்து உண்ணும் அன்னப்பறவை போல் வேண்டியவற்றை   எடுத்துக்கொண்டு பயன் பெறுங்கள்.

What Dravidam taught us?
தென்னை மரத்துல் "கள்" மட்டும் தான் கிடைக்கும் போல தோப்பையே அழித்த "பகுத்தறிவு"

ஒரு தேசிய தலைவரை "பனைமரமேறி" என்று இழிவு படுத்திய "சமூக நீதி". (தென்னை பனை மரம் ஏறவும் அட்களில்லை, இப்ப அந்த மரமும் நிறைய இல்ல... விடுங்க.... "ஒரு தொழிலை இழிவுபடுத்தி நாம் சாதித்தவை" என்று கல்வெட்டில் பொறித்து கொள்வோம்... என் சகாக்கள் இழந்தவற்றை மீட்க்கும் பணியில் உள்ளனர்... இயர்க்கை காக்கப்படும்)

There are "Intellectual" people in every BLOC to JUSTIFY the deeds of their leaders... (Details in comment box [4])

"நான் சொல்றத அப்படியே நம்பவேண்டாம், உன் மனசுக்கு சரின்னு பட்ட ஏத்துக்கோ" என்று சொன்ன பெரியாரும், திராவிடமும் விவாதமின்றி ஏற்கபடவேண்டும் சொல்லி நிக்குற பகலவர்களை கண்டு பெரியாரே தீ குளிச்சிருப்பாறு.

தமிழர்களே!!! தமிழர்களே!!!

TAMIL and TAMIL PEOPLE are enlightened SHINING SUN ( not rising sun). DRAVIDAM is an ECLIPSE, it is temporary. Wakeup call!!!


Lastly, #Nesamani has given DEATH KNOCK to the #SRMSuicideIncident, #SwearingInCermony, #TNWaterCrisis.....

Yet few matters are in ICU WARD... misinformation on #TNagainstHindiImposition will take care of the FUNNERAL of mentioned issues.

I would like to recall a quote by my friend, "Let's fall in love with languages not with politics.."
#EndofIdeologies would pave way to
#IdeaofSycretism for #Humanism to thrive. #SocialCapital

கடைசியா இந்தி படிக்கனுமா நம்ம?

ஆமாம்!!! கண்டிப்பா... ஹிந்திகாரன், பிஹார்காரன், பெங்காளி, மராத்தி வித்தியாச கூட தெரியல நமக்கு... அதுக்காச்சு நாலு ஹிந்தி வார்த்த தெரிஞ்சிக்கனும்....

Few months back I mentioned about it....
Our Future Generation should learn to speak more Indian Languages..... Not Essentially Hindi..... As many as.... Good Initiative by MHRD

Ps. 1963 Office language Act made continuation of ENGLISH after Agitation by DMK led Movement.... Previously 1937 Rajaji proposed to make Hindi Compulsory in Schools it created the first Agitation led by Justice Party (Ernstwhile DK)
