What is the harm if Hindi is taught as a third language in Tamil Nadu ? : Madras HC

Editorial comment

It has been observed that in southern India the Hindi language is frequently disregarded, hence, the Central Government should try to give priority to Sanskrut all over India, which will end all the language-related issues !

Madras High Court has given 8 weeks to the associated organisation to respond.
