Politics of Language Education in Tamil Nadu: Changes and Challenges
Abstract
This study explores the attitudes of college-going youth in Tamil Nadu toward language education, focusing on Tamil, English, and Hindi. Using an online survey of 2,223 participants, it investigates perspectives on Tamil as the medium of instruction, the role of English as a communicative language, and the feasibility of Hindi as an additional language. The findings reveal a shift in youth attitudes: a strong preference for multilingual competence, a demand for quality language education, and advocacy for bilingual resources. The study highlights the need for decentralised language policies that balance linguistic identity with global and national mobility, providing actionable insights for policymakers in multilingual societies.
