Two-Language Policy

Tamil as mother tongue and administrative language; English for global connectivity.

The two-language formula — Tamil and English — is non-negotiable. It is the legacy of the Anti-Hindi agitation and remains the foundation of Tamil Nadu's linguistic compact.

Government-to-citizen communication, primary-school instruction, and public-sector recruitment are delivered in Tamil. English is the gateway language to higher technical education and the global economy.

Tamil computational infrastructure — fonts, accessibility tooling, machine translation, voice models — receives sustained state investment so digital governance does not become a back-door push for a third language.
