'Rise above political differences': Dharmendra Pradhan hits back at Stalin on NEP row
Friday, 21 February 2025 Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan clarified that the NEP 2020 does not mandate any language and criticized Tamil NaduCM MK Stalin for misinterpreting it. Pradhan urged the state to implement NEP 2020 for the benefit of young learners, while CM Stalin and other leaders voiced concerns over the potential imposition of Hindi and its impact on Tamil language.
Mallikarjun Kharge apologises in Rajya Sabha after uproar over his 'derogatory' remark during a debate on Hindi imposition under the NEP. While Kharge clarified his comments targeted government policies, MPs alleged they were aimed at the Chair. Leader of the House JP Nadda condemned Kharge's words, calling them 'unpardonable.' The controversy also saw demands for Dharmendra Pradhan’s apology for remarks against Tamil Nadu's government.

The upcoming delimitation exercise in India has ignited a fierce debate between the central government and southern states. The process, which involves redrawing Lok Sabha and state assembly constituencies based on population, could significantly impact the political representation of states like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, and Andhra Pradesh. With northern states experiencing higher population growth, delimitation may shift parliamentary seats in their favor, potentially reducing the South’s influence. Leaders like MK Stalin and Siddaramaiah are rallying against the move, calling it an unfair punishment for states that effectively controlled population growth.
