Why RSS, the only option, to rescue the TN Tamil Medium Education & hence Tamil?

Let us say 'Goodbye to hate-politics' & embrace  genuine pro-Tamil politics 

 

The previous post revealed:

" Are Tamil language, heritage, & culture dying, or undergoing changes in accordance with the changing times? In either way, the countdown  had started, in my view, with the English Medium play schools entering into even the remote villages in Tamilnadu (TN).  After the countdown, Tamil, Tamils & Tamilnadu will be unbelievably different, up or down." 

Can we leave the death of the Tamil medium Education (& hence Tamil), Tamil heritage & culture,  to the fate, accepting our inability to resist the onslaught of the English medium education, & the 'distorted Indian diseased' western culture?

 

Can we permit , all of our children, to achieve less in their life, due to the shortfall in the cognitive skills related brain development, due to the non-mother tongue primary education they had?

Based on the  pro-RSS recent developments ( note below)  & my interactions with pro-Hindutva persons, I infer that,

RSS had realized, that minus mother tongue medium & encouragement to the  native diverse cultures & traditions, westernization would swallow India, all native languages, & ideologies including Hindutva , all becoming exhibits of the museum.

Pro-RSS  body  Swadeshi Jagran Manch  (http://www.swadeshionline.in/) had officially supported mother tongue medium, & their Tamil monthly 'சுதேசி செய்தி' had published many articles including mine in Nov 2013;

(http://tamilsdirection.blogspot.com/2013/10/normal-0-false-false-false-en-us-x-none_24.html)

Though I had sent the above article to both pro & anti Hindutva persons in my social circle, I received encouraging positive pro-active response from pro-Hindutva persons, leading to the above publishing in the monthly. The lack of due concern on the dying conditions of the Tamil medium, by the so called Tamil leaders, is probably camouflaged by their 'hate politics', well explained in http://keetru.com/index.php/2014-03-08-04-35-27/2014-03-08-12-18-14/29617-2015-11-10-14-27-52. Who served the interests of Tamil & Tamils? could not be drowned by the 'hate politics' indulged by the so called Tamil leaders, who did not bother to question the so called 'Tamil patrons', who destroyed TN natural resources including historical evidences, spreading corruption, as the social virus, infecting the TN Tamils & distancing them from their mother tongue. Was the 'hate politics' responsible for the 'cancerous growth' of the thugs in the public domain, leading to the social 'ICU' sickness of the Tamil medium & the corrupt life style, infecting most of the Tamils, to 'sacrifice the self respect', to become the 'human dogs' wagging tail or barking for the 'bones' of money & influence? To rescue the Tamil medium, Tamil & Tamils, all kinds of 'anti-intellectual & emotion saturated' hate politics, including anti-Brahmin, anti-RSS, anti-Muslim, anti-Dalit, anti non-dalit,  etc, shall be reversed, to genuine pro-Tamil politics, availing the services from all directions to the social 'ICU' Tamil medium rescue operation. Reversing the 'Dravidar, Dravida, Tamil, identity confusion process' initiated by 'Periyar' EVR in 1944,  the 'open minded' & 'intellectual honest' processor in the 'social computer EVR' can be upgraded, and  the 'hard disc' of his ideologies updated, to help the above rescue operation, with his 'self respect' concept as the beacon light; I suggest, to safeguard his 'reputation' from the future probable 'unjust' branding, as the 'prime social culprit' , causing the death of the Tamil medium Education (& hence Tamil), Tamil heritage & culture. 

The readers of the above Tamil monthly 'சுதேசி செய்தி', are mostly 'educated & pro-native' Tamils, mostly free from the 'hate politics' & more focused on the pro-native politics. 

Based on the above, I infer that the 'educated & pro-native' & intelligent Brahmin parents, on cross-checking the research findings & UNESCO recommendation w.r.t cognitive skills related brain development in mother tongue medium up to the primary education, will start educating their children in the mother tongue, to maximize the benefits to their children.

(  'தமிழின் மரணப் பயணம் துவங்கிவிட்டதா? (8); தமிழ்நாட்டுப் பிராமணர்கள் தமிழைக் காப்பாற்றுவார்கள்': http://tamilsdirection.blogspot.com/2014/10/normal-0-false-false-false-en-us-x-none_19.html  )

Soon afterwards,  the pro-Tamil leaders, scholars, professors, etc , will follow the above Brahmins, educating their children in  the Tamil Medium .

We cannot blame the parents for changing over to the English medium for the higher education, in view of the advantages.

 The TN Tamil Medium,  at least up to the primary level, will be rescued from the death bed, to facilitate the breathing time, to plan properly to extend the success , to the next higher levels. 

The success in developing the advantages of Tamil medium in the higher education, had to be demonstrated by the higher education admissions of the children of the pro-Tamil leaders, scholars, professors, etc , the vanguard for the Tamil development, instead of their current sheep like educating their children in the English medium in TN.

Hope, under RSS guidance, the Modi govt will take into account the following hurdles, to implement the mother tongue medium education.

All  NCERT / CBSE approved schools attract students based on "English medium". These private schools may even close their schools rather than offering Mother tongue medium, and change over to the International Schools. Such vested interests may fund and support the socially harmful efforts to defeat any 'New Education Policy' by the Modi govt, to rescue the mother-tongue medium education.

The current situation is beneficial to selfish money making private school owners and investors from English speaking countries, especially thru the mushroom like growth of the international schools, after the introduction of 'சமசீர்க்கல்வி' in Tamilnadu (TN).

I wish & pray that the pro-Tamil/Dravidian groups, cooperate to form a common non-political forum for the TN Govt/aided private schools'   'Tamil Medium rescue programme', instead of employing parrot-like,  anti-Brahmin, & anti-RSS bogey, to oppose them.

Only 'psychologically insecure' persons, or the thugs exploiting the social issues,  need to hate any 'caste, religion, language, etc'  to survive. Embracing  genuine ( not just in speeches, & writings, but also pro-active in the personal life domain)  pro-Tamil politics alone, could rescue the Tamil from the deathbed. Supporting RSS to pressurize the Modi govt to enforce the mother tongue medium in the schools, & pressurizing all pro-Tamil groups to educate their children in Tamil medium in the schools, are the viable options to prevent the death of the Tamil medium.
