DMK leader M. Karunanidhi has threatened to launch an anti-Sanskrit protest on the lines of the anti-Hindi agitation. He alleged that there was an attempt to impose Sanskrit with the support of the ruling party at the Centre, .
He was addressing a gathering at the marriage of the daughter of the former minister, Poongothai Aladi Aruna on Monday.
Mr. Karunanidhi said those who sought to impose Sanskrit should stop the “atrocity” immediately.“Otherwise, there will be protest against the imposition of Sanskrit as it happened in the case of Hindi. No one should be responsible for such a situation.”
If anyone advocated Sanskrit, every Tamil should take a whip and be ready to eradicate the language. “We will not allow domination of Sanskrit not only in Tamil Nadu, but in any State. We will chase it away,” he warned.
