"Except BJP, all parties supported our resolution": Tamil Nadu CM Stalin on three language formula

Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], March 25 (ANI): Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on Tuesday said that except the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), all parties have extended their support to their resolution against the three language formula, adding that nobody is against any language but cannot accept any language imposition.
"Except BJP, all parties have supported it (resolution against three languages). We are firm that we will never accept it (triple language policy). I came to know that opposition leader Edappadi K. Palaniswami has gone to Delhi. We hope that the opposition leader (Edappadi K. Palaniswami) will raise this issue. It's not a money issue but a rights issue. It's the state's twin language policy. Nobody is against any language but cannot accept any language imposition. Hindi language imposition will not only be a third language but it's will destroy culture. So, to save India's federalism and state rights, we are forced to take the right decisions and actions. I will publish a statement very soon in this regard," CM Stalin said.
