Essay Paper
Editorial
Q – “Only Compulsion in learning Hindi is met with
resistance in the State of Tamil Nadu” Explain?
INTRO = Tamil Nadu’s two-language policy, implemented
decades ago after a historic agitation against the imposition
of Hindi, remains non-negotiable for almost the entire
political class. Opposition from the State had last year
forced the Centre to amend the draft NEP and withdraw a
proposal to teach Hindi as a third language in schools in
non-Hindi speaking States. Yet in the NEP, approved by the
Union Cabinet last week, it chose to push for the three-
language formula, packaging it as a means to promote
multilingualism and “national unity”.
Though the policy said that no language will be imposed on any
State, it has expectedly cut no ice with parties in Tamil Nadu,
which have risen in near unison to oppose the proposal. In fact,
Mr. Palaniswami, citing “collective sentiments” of the people,
noted that the proposal was “saddening and painful” and
appealed to the Prime Minister to allow States to follow their
own language policy.

In a State that resisted multiple attempts to impose Hindi
since 1937, political parties are understandably wary of any
mandate to impart an additional language in schools.
They fear this would eventually pave the way for Hindi to
enter the State through the back door.
Since 1985, the State has even refused to allow Jawahar
Navodaya Vidyalayas to be set up as they teach Hindi.
The history of the “2 Language Policy” & what it means –
The two-language policy of Tamil and English, piloted by
former Chief Minister C.N. Annadurai in 1968, has thus far
worked well in the State. In a liberalised world, more
windows to the world are being opened up for those
proficient in English, a global link language. The State’s
significant human resources contribution to the ever-
expanding IT sector is also attributed to the English fluency
of its recruits as much as to their technical knowledge.
There is this counter-argument that Tamil Nadu is depriving
students of an opportunity to learn Hindi, touted as a
national link language. However, its voluntary learning has
never been restricted –
1) The growth over the past decade in the number of CBSE
schools, where the language is taught, would bear
testimony to this.
2) The patronage for the 102-year-old Dakshina Bharat Hindi
Prachar Sabha, based in Chennai, also proves this.
3) In the Sabha’s centenary year, Tamil Nadu accounted for
73% of active Hindi pracharaks (teachers) in South India.
4) Out of necessity, many in the State have picked up
conversational Hindi to engage with the migrant population that
feeds the labour needs from factories to hair salons.
Only compulsion is met with resistance. India’s federal nature
and diversity demand that no regional language is given
supremacy over another. Thus, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister
Edappadi K. Palaniswami has only reiterated the State’s
unwavering position on an emotive and political issue.

International Relations
Q – Write a short note about the suspension of H-1B visas in
the U.S?
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order
preventing federal agencies from contracting or subcontracting
foreign workers — mainly those on H-1B visas.
The move comes over a month after the Trump administration
on June 23 suspended the H-1B visas, along with other types of
foreign work visas, until the end of 2020 to protect American
workers in a crucial election year.
Mr. Trump’s order follows an announcement by the federally-
owned Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) that it would
outsource 20% of its technology jobs to companies based in
foreign countries.
TVA’s action could cause more than 200 highly-skilled
American tech workers in Tennessee to lose their jobs to low-
wage, foreign workers hired on temporary work visas. He said
his administration will not tolerate firing of hardworking
Americans in pursuit of cheap foreign labour (outsourcing).
Social Justice Q – What does the TB notification fall in the National TB Elimination Programme, 2020 mean?
There has been a drop of 3.4 lakh tuberculosis (TB) cases reported from January to June this year as against the same period in 2019. Experts attribute the decline to the inability of TB patients to avail health services during the lockdown months and caution that TB control programmes must prepare themselves for major difficulties ahead as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic.

As against a total of 12.50 lakh TB cases that were notified to
the National TB Elimination Programme from January till June
in 2019, this year, from January till June, a total of 9.15 lakh
TB cases were notified.
Missing cases refer to the difference between the estimated
cases and the number reported to the TB programme,
assuming an incidence of 199 cases/one lakh population as
stated in the India TB report 2020. TB had become a
notifiable disease in 2012 and overall, there has been a 14
per cent increase in TB notifications to the National TB
Elimination Programme, with 6.78 lakh notified from the
private sector.
“ There is also hope that due to adoption of new behaviours,
use of masks, social distancing and cough etiquettes, there
might be a reduction of transmission of TB during the
pandemic,”
How about this today!?
