In a detailed explanation of the One Nation, One Election (ONOE) concept, Tamil Nadu BJP Chief K Annamalai outlined the significant benefits of aligning elections for the Lok Sabha and state assemblies on Friday.
"Like One Nation One Election, we are talking to the people now. A committee has submitted a report before the Parliament, and we all know the way forward," said K Annamalai to the media.
Tamil Nadu BJP president K Annamalai has reiterated the party's stance on the three-language issue, stating that while people of the state do not want a compulsory third language imposed upon them, they are open to learning one voluntarily.
External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar on Thursday met with a delegation of fishermen from Tamil Nadu, led by BJP state chief K Annamalai, in Delhi to discuss their concerns and explore sustainable solutions.
Tamil Nadu BJP chief K Annamalai asserted that the party's signature campaign promoting the three-language policy would transform the fate of Tamil people.
The BJP's signature campaign receives over two lakh signatures in just 36 hours through their website puthiyakalvi.in. Annamalai also criticized CM Stalin on social media, accusing him of failing to carry out a signature campaign against NEET and calling his opposition to Hindi imposition
Attacking CM Stalin on the issue, Annamalai said, "Having realised that the opposition to the three-language policy hasn't yielded support from the common people, Thiru MK Stalin has now jumped to the imaginary Hindi imposition."
The Tamil Nadu government has strongly opposed implementing the New Education Policy (NEP) of 2020, raising concern over the "three-language formula" and alleging that the Centre wants to 'impose' Hindi.
