Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on Thursday alleged that many north Indian languages spoken in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh — such as Mythili, Brajbhasha, Bundelkhandi and Awadhi, “have been destroyed by the hegemonic Hindi."

The DMK chief’s remark came as he protested the imposition of the Hindi language by the Centre and vowed to protect Tamil and its culture.

Stalin’s party has been alleging Hindi imposition by the Centre through the three-language formula as part of the National Education Policy (NEP), a charge denied by the union government.
