Amit Shah's Malayalam Response to MP Brittas Adds Linguistic Twist to Kerala Politics

India's Home Minister, Amit Shah, wrote a letter back to a Member of Parliament, John Brittas, using the Malayalam language.

This is unusual because government officials usually write in Hindi or English.

Many people are talking about this because Kerala is about to have elections.

Some think the Home Minister did this to try and get more support for his party in Kerala.

Others believe it's a way to show respect for different languages spoken in India and to support the idea that all languages are important.

MP Brittas had previously raised concerns about a government rule concerning people with Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) status.

While the Home Minister's letter was about this rule, the use of Malayalam was seen as a significant cultural and political move.
