POINTING to a news report which said the funds allotted for the promotion of Sanskrit was manifold higher than Tamil and other classical languages, Chief Minister M K Stalin on Tuesday blamed the BJP-led union government for allotting all funds for Sanskrit while feigning love for Tamil.
Citing the report written based on information obtained under the RTI Act, Stalin, in a post on X, said, "Sanskrit gets the crores; Tamil and other South Indian languages get nothing but crocodile tears."
According to the report, between 2014-15 and 2024-25, the union government spent ₹2,532.59 crore on promoting Sanskrit, while only ₹147.56 crore in total for the promotion of the other five classical languages combined, including Tamil. The allocation for Tamil alone was ₹113.48 crore, the report said.
