If Hindi imposition goes unchecked and the Hindi speaking people's arrogance goes unchecked - then it wld be natural for the people of TN to turn eazham's way. Hope that does not happen.

Dear Sithiran,
Your critisism of Hindi is unwarranted. Indian Students are learning French and German as second language just like Hindi. Nobody is forcing the Tamils to learn Hindi. I know many Tamil friends in Delhi and Mumbai speaking good Hindi. Those who live and work over there need Hindi as communication language. What is wrong if the Tamil students of Tamilnadu who plan to have a career in North India learn Hindi?
Do you think by learning Hindi you loose your culture? no way instead you are loosing your culture by learing English, Frech and German.

People learning Hindi out of their own interest is different from being force to learn Hindi. Every employee in PSUs have been issued ordered to learn Hindi. There are circulars saying there should be atleast 55% of communication that shld be in Hindi. This applies to all the officers to serve in the rural areas - where the chances of people knowing Hindi is highly unlikely. Dont you think this is not imposition. It is applicable even to scientist working in our Defence Organizations. It has just gone underground. That is it.
There are incentives to employees who have taken up and cleared Hindi exams.
More over u need understand that he didn't critisize Hindi - he just critizied imposition of Hindi.

Mr True Indian,
First let others know your true name - then come here to ask other to get out their country.
I have no dislike towards the Hindi language. The problem is the way it is getting imposed. More over liking or disliking a language is an individual opinion - you cannot force people to like/dislike a particular langauge - if you do that then that is not democracy - you are trying to violate our constitution. Now tell me who is patriotic.
I need NOT have to prove to you that I am an Indian (as long as you remain an Indian - if you start showing your Hindi face - then you would be required to see Tamil face). And you need to understand the fact that you do not have the right to ask me to get out of my country.
By the way - could you tell me what is your mother tongue.
