Former cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin has ignited a fresh debate at a Tamil Nadu event, stating, "Hindi is not our national language but an official language" Opinions? Ashwin 🇮🇳

@ashwinravi99 First tell your opinion. Isn't he telling the truth?

Today, we remember Reyhaneh Jabbari, a 26-year-old Iranian woman EXECUTED for defending herself against RAPE. Imagine facing death simply for saying "No"! Western women, stand with us in amplifying Reyhaneh’s voice and all women in Iran who risk everything for their dignity and rights. #ReyhanehJabbari #WomanLifeFreedom

@ashwinravi99 It's a FACT. why u need opinion!?

@ashwinravi99 Why need any opinion? What he said is the truth. Hindi just an official language just like Tamil and Malayalam. Period!

@praveenpedapudi @ashwinravi99 It's a fact. What do you mean by opinions? People like you have either peddled or encouraged the peddling of this utter lies that Hindi is our national language. Hindi is just one of the two official languages of India, the other being English.

@ashwinravi99 This is needlessly stoking controversy. This way, before starting any speech, I can always say, "Should I speak in Hindi or Tamil?" And, being in North India, when the crowd responds, "Hindi!", I can say, "Well, of course, anyway Tamil is not our national language."

@ashwinravi99 What he said is not wrong, and you are fueling the issue. People like you create controversy over nothing so you can survive. Parasite!

@ashwinravi99 He’s stated the fact. English is the connect language. What’s there to debate.

@ashwinravi99 What opinion ma'am. He stated the fact that's it..

@ashwinravi99 Not any controversy to make any opinions. Everyone has right to say anything as long as that doesn’t affect anyone. Peace ✌🏻

@ashwinravi99 It is a fact bro - I mean this 3 languages has done any real good to us ? In this modern era , learn a universal language like English and your mother tongue - sheer waste of national resources - had we promoted English across india , India would have been much better
