DMK chief M Karunanidhi condemned MHA's order of priority to Hindi on official social media interaction. Karunanidhi asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi instead to focus on development agenda.
"The Prime Minister should focus on development rather than on promoting Hindi," the 90-year-old told a news channel on Thursday in Chennai.
The order by the Union Home Ministry stated that government departments and bureaucrats must use Hindi on social media for their official accounts.
"No one can deny it's a beginning to impose Hindi against one's wish. This amounts to an attempt to treat non-Hindi speakers as second class citizens," said Karunanidhi. "Language battlefields have not yet dried. History has recorded anti-Hindi agitation," Mr Karunanidhi said.
