Chennai, Feb 9 (UNI) Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and DMK President
M K Stalin slammed the BJP-led Government at the Centre for taking
political against TN for rejecting the NEP-2020 and its unjust attitude
knew no bounds.

Centre has resorted toopen blackmail and snatched away Rs 2,152 crore

has been so ruthless to strangle access to political revenge against state.
Coming down heavily on the Centre, the Chief Minister said the BJP has
once again proved itself to be the face of injustice and hatred towards
Tamil Nadu and its people
"The Union BJP Government’s unjust attitude against Tamil Nadu knows
no bounds!", he said, in a post on X.
"For rejecting the imposition of NEP2020 and the three-language policy,
they resorted to open blackmail, snatching away Rs.2,152 crore meant for
Tamil Nadu’s students and now they have handed it over to other states",
he said.
"This is nothing short of coercion, punishing our students for standing up
for their rights", Mr Stalin said.
"No government in India’s history has been so ruthless to strangle access
to education for political revenge against a State. The BJP has once again
proven itself to be the face of injustice and hatred towards Tamil Nadu and
its people!", he added.
