I am a Tamil and I learned #Hindi out of my own interest as I was in Delhi for work. It's time to stop the nonsense that #TamilNadu is against #HindiLanguage . The state is only against #HindiImposition and there is a vast difference between choice and imposition.

#DMK President #MKStalin says he met #Telangana Chief Minister #KCR out of courtesy. Sources say party conveyed to #KCR its clear stand vis-a-vis #BJP & reaffirmed its alliance with #Congress . "He came with an agenda which is unacceptable to us," a DMK leader. | @DeccanHerald

#Congress leader Kapil Sibal attending the #EVMhacking event in #London is absurd, to say the least. The party does not have problems with #Evm when it wins, but has heaps of complaints if it loses. Why did not the party raises objections during 2004&2009 polls?

"Learning a bit of Hindi is not a crime," seems to be the sermon delivered to all non-Hindi speaker post the #Zomato fiasco. Of course, it isn't a crime. But every language has a history. Least of our expectations is that Hindi speakers acknowledge this simple fact. (1/n)

As #TamilNadu remembers great social reformer #Periyar on his death anniversary today, the official handle of #BJP #TamilNadu unit tweets about his personal life in quite bad taste. Deletes it and posts the same content in another handle of the state unit and retweets it.
