Vaiko Applauds Mamata's Stance on Language Policy
Some politicians are talking about how schools should teach languages.
Right now, in Tamil Nadu, kids learn Tamil and English.
The central government wants kids to learn three languages, including Hindi, but some people don't like that idea.
They think it's like forcing Hindi on everyone.
Politicians like Vaiko and Mamata Banerjee agree with Tamil Nadu's way of doing things.
They think it's important to respect different languages and cultures.
Also, some people who are leaving their jobs in the government were wished well.
Vaiko, an MDMK member, praised Mamata Banerjee's stance on language policy.

Tamil Nadu follows a two-language formula, studying Tamil and English.
