Kumaraswamy, Siddaramaiah take on Ajay Devgn: 'Hindi not our national language'

TIL Desk/National/Bengaluru/ Reacting to the Twitter spat between Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn and Kannada actor Kichcha Sudeep over the use of Hindi, former Karnataka chief minister and Janata Dal-Secular leader HD Kumaraswamy said: “Actor Ajay Devgn is not only hyper in nature but also shows his ludicrous behaviour.

“Taking to Twitter, Kumaraswamy wrote, “Actor @KicchaSudeep saying that Hindi is not a national language is correct. There is nothing to find fault in his statement. Actor @ajaydevgn is not only hyper in nature but also shows his ludicrous behaviour. ”Kumaraswamy attacked the central government for doing language politics and said Devgn was blabbering as a mouthpiece of the Bharatiya Janata Party’s Hindi nationalism agenda.

“From the beginning, Hindi-based political parties at the Centre have been making efforts to destroy regional languages. Congress started suppressing regional languages, which is being continued by the BJP,” he tweeted. “Ajay Devgn blabbered as a mouthpiece of the BJP’s Hindi nationalism of one nation, one tax, one language and one government,” Kumaraswamy said in a subsequent tweet. He said merely because a large population speaks Hindi, it does not mean it becomes the national language. Ajay Devgn must realise that Kannada cinema is outgrowing the Hindi film industry, he added.
