Tamil as optional language: EPS deletes tweet

"This will be a great service to one of the most ancient languages of the world,” the Tamil Nadu CM had tweeted. However, he deleted the tweet after backlash from opposition parties. The tweet comes at a time when the Centre was forced to revised the new Draft National Education Policy, which had recommended Hindi learning mandatory in schools of non-Hindi speaking states.
