Jab Hindustan hai desh hamara
Hindu Muslim Sikh Isai
Aapas main hai bhai bhai
A paean to secularism recited in Hindi at a joint meeting of the ruling alliance in Tamil Nadu on Sunday evening. And who trots out these lines flawlessly in a thick Tamil accent, without consulting a piece of paper. None other than Muthuvel Karunanidhi, the head of the DMK, whose party came to power for the first time way back in 1967 on an anti-Hindi platform.
Listening to the Kalaignar's ode to secularism in the very language he has openly despised, presented mixed emotions - of mirth as well as admiration. The man has tirelessly stuck to 'Tamizh Tai' as his medium of expression, and has rarely spoken in English in public, forget Hindi. (The only time I've heard a near-English soundbyte of his was when he read out some report on the Cauvery issue in English)
Karunanidhi is in no mood to give way on the Sethusamudram project, a long-cherished dream of Dravidian ideology. And at the same time wants to show off that he's part of a secular India and not just a regional politician. A shrewd publicity gimmick stimulating his cadres and creating a talking point for the Tamil public. And an indication to the BJP that two can play the game of whipping up sentiments.
The perfect launch pad for the hunger strike DMK leaders plan on Monday, after the Supreme Court's special sitting on a Sunday restrained them from organising a bandh. No bandh, no food - that's the motto.
The AIADMK may have prevented a bandh by going to the Supreme Court, but Karunanidhi's Plan B was undoubtedly poetry in motion. And Amma has to tread carefully, with the seasoned veteran already invoking Tamil pride.
At 84, the veteran scriptwriter continues to surprise us with new layers in the plot of power. Ever the artist, the Kalaignar.

Enjoyed reading it. People of TN have always believed that this man who quit school to participate in the anti-Hindi agitations in the late 30s (the first anti-Hindi movement started in 1938, I think. At least, the first ever self-immolation opposing Hindi happened then) is good at both Hindi and English and can speak both languages fluently. Once spoke with a old Brahmin who claimed that Karunanidhi's children took Hindi tuition from him! Not sure how true it is, though.
I also came across a phrase describing Karunanidhi as the 'God of Atheism' somewhere today! It fits nicely, I think.
the master of plot twists should be the master of politicking. where's that dratted book you promised?
Here are Karunanidhi's historic lines
Hindustan hai desh hamara, janse apne humko pyara.
Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Isaai aapas main hain bhai bhai.
Bhai hoga bhai hamara, aisa hoga chalan hamara
(India is our country and we love it more than our lives. Hindus, Muslims,Sikhs and Christians are all brothers. Brothers will be
brothers, such will be our conduct).
ayyooo ravanaaaa !!!
anti-hindi agitation or movement is NOT karunanidhi's brainchild but of that of the dravidian movement in general. It has its roots in the 1937-38 anti hindi agitation in which two tamils were killed.
Karunanidhi would have been 13-14 year old at that time. To see an individual as an embodiment of an ideology/movement and to expect the movement to wither away with his demise is immature !

Now Urdu is going to be made a compulsory language in Muslim schools across Tamilnadu. Many of Urdu castes in reserved category already dont speak Tamil, but being treated like Tamils.
Here are some great DMK achievements for Tamil language in Tamilnadu:
1)Tamil removed from Chennai domestic airport.
2)Hindi rotten music brought (latest "pop" albums) in Tamilnadu FM stations.
3)Hindi DMK pamphlets distributed during elections.
4)Karunanidhi reciting Hindi poems.
Kanimozhi condemning Tamil poet Baaradhiyar.
5)Plan to break Ramarpalam.
6)Launch of Isaiyaruvi channel where presenters dont even speak proper Tamil; they have beaten Sun Music in Thamingalam.
7)Allowing Hindi imposition in CBSE schools while Northerners skipping Tamil altogether.
No Tamil in even TN government transport and other website (see Karnataka/Kannada website for comparison)
8)Children's books in Tamil language have only English fruit/vegetable names written in Tamil and not Tamil words (again see Kannada books for children as comparison)
9)Broken promise of Tamil/bilingual engineering and adv course (no 1 reason of Tamil medium student suicides)
10)Use of Thamizh thaai vaazhthu with deleted and modified line and not original (note: High court case has been filed).
11)DMK treats FC Tamils as non-Tamils; hits outs as them being non-Tamil or "enemies of Tamil" while treating Urdu and Hindi castes as Tamils in the OBC reservation policy. DMK has made Urdu as compulsory language in Muslim schools.
DMK is really greatest champion for Tamil language.
