Even though i dont like his views against Hinduism. He was a true genious in opposing Hindi imposotion in Tamil Nadu.
Otherwise it would have created Hindi Chauvunism. Already it is there in many places. People from Hindi heartland assume that Hindi is the only language, so everone should speak in Hindi only.
Even a typical educated Northis give priority to Hindi not English.
Hindi already killed Marathi,Assame,kannada culture. In the years to come the surving language in India will be Hindi and other languages which is againt Hindi.
One point they often forget is Hindi is an offshoot of Afghans,Arabs marriage with Sanskrit.
SO English should be our national language(Atleast it promises job in MNC) and we should give priority to Reginal Languages.
