TAMIL ENTERS PM MODI'S CONSTITUENCY - RAILWAY ANNOUNCEMENTS TO BE MADE IN SOUTH INDIAN LANGUAGES!

History has now and then showed the attempt of Hindi imposition in non-Hindi land. However, things have now taken a turn for the good as an initiative for non-Hindi people has been taken by the railway department.

PM Modi's constituency Varanasi will soon have railway announcements in South Indian languages like Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada to make it easier for the people visiting the holy city.

"Non- Hindi speakers, especially from South India are coming here in large numbers. A majority of them do not understand Hindi. So, for their ease and convenience, we will be soon making the announcements in regional languages. Initially, it will be in four languages. The system is being upgraded for this," said regional station director.

"We are beginning with Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada and Telugu. Later Odia, Marathi and other languages will also be added. This will be done by the end of this month. This is a new experiment and it will be started from the prime minister's constituency," he added.
