Hindi imposition row: What is three-language formula in NEP and why does Tamil Nadu oppose it? Explained in 5 points

  • Tamil Nadu opposes the three-language formula due to fears it promotes Hindi, as shown by a Lokniti-CSDS survey where over 70% opposed its imposition in 2019.
  • The state has maintained a two-language policy, yielding significant educational outcomes such as a Gross Enrollment Ratio of 47% in 2022.
  • Concerns have arisen over financial penalties imposed by the Union government to enforce the policy, raising issues of federal overreach.
  • The Union government has withheld ₹2,152 crore in funding due to Tamil Nadu's refusal to adopt the three-language policy, which many view as a violation of state rights.
