Even non-Hindi speaking MPS not spared in India

Srinagar, August 10, 2020 (PPI-OT): Hinduisation of India at the hands of fascist Modi regime has started spreading its ugly tentacles with none other than Dravida Munnetra Kazagham, the member of Indian Parliament from Tamil Nadu, becoming its latest victim who has complained that she was asked by Central Industrial Security Force officials if “she was an Indian” as she could not speak Hindi.

According to Kashmir Media Service, the incident took place when Kanimozhi was at the Chennai international airport to take a flight to New Delhi. “Today at the airport, a CISF officer asked me if ‘I am an Indian’ when I asked her to speak to me in Tamil or English as I did not know Hindi,” Kanimozhi, who is also the [Dravidian Progressive Federation] DMK’s women’s wing secretary, said on her official Twitter account.

“I would like to know from when being Indian is equal to knowing Hindi,” she tweeted with the hashtag “hindi imposition.” Kanimozhi is the member of Parliament from Thoothukkudi in Tamil Nadu. It is wroth mentioning here that DMK represents low-caste Dravidian people who are around 245 million native speakers of Dravidian languages.
