Schools run by DMK leaders teach Hindi only because of centre's edu policy: Stalin
The New Indian Express Tiruchy
|March 05, 2025
IN a bid to debunk BJP's argument that Hindi is being taught in CBSE schools run by some DMK leaders, party president Chief Minister M K Stalin stated that the union government's education policy is to be blamed for the situation and not any individual, irrespective of their political alignment.
In the seventh part of his letter series in party organ Murasoli, Stalin said that anybody, whether attached to a political party or not, can run a school by obtaining the necessary permissions. "On this basis, a number of DMK functionaries are running state-board as well CBSE schools. If Hindi is being taught in these private CBSE schools, the union government's education policy is the reason," he said.
