BJP Tamil Nadu State President K Annamalai launched a scathing attack on Chief Minister MK Stalin, posing three direct questions in response to the ongoing political tussle over the National Education Policy (NEP) and the three-language formula. Taking to social media platform X, Annamalai accused the ruling DMK of misleading the people and playing politics with students’ education.
In his post, Annamalai wrote, “Three questions for the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister who is in a panic.
First question: What did you find wrong in the statement of the Union Education Minister Mr.@dpradhanbjp that DMK members are dishonest and uncivilized? He has spoken the truth.
Second question: You say that we only act according to the people’s opinions, who are those people? Is it your son, daughter, son-in-law, your party members and their relatives who run private CBSE and matriculation schools?
Third question: Who is that super Chief Minister?
The people of Tamil Nadu know very well who is playing politics in the education of poor and simple students. Your paint has faded, Mr.
@mkstalin. You cannot deceive the people of Tamil Nadu anymore.”
பதட்டத்தில் பிதற்றும் தமிழக முதல்வருக்கு மூன்று கேள்விகள்.
முதல் கேள்வி:
திமுகவினர் நேர்மையற்ற, நாகரீகமற்றவர்கள் என்று மத்திய கல்வி அமைச்சர் திரு @dpradhanbjp அவர்கள் சொன்னதில் என்ன குறை கண்டீர்கள்? உண்மையை தானே சொல்லியிருக்கிறார்.
இரண்டாவது கேள்வி:
மக்களின் எண்ணங்களுக்கு… https://t.co/hN32oorgqi

Stormy Start to Parliament Session Over Three-Language Policy
Annamalai’s remarks come in the wake of a heated debate in Parliament, where the DMK and the Union government clashed over the Centre’s education policies. The second leg of the Budget Session began on a stormy note, with DMK MPs vociferously opposing the alleged imposition of the three-language formula in Tamil Nadu and other southern states.
The protests escalated further when Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan accused the Stalin-led government of deliberately obstructing the implementation of central education policies, thereby jeopardizing the future of Tamil Nadu’s students. “They are doing politics over students’ future and misleading the people for their narrow political gains,” Pradhan said. He also described the DMK’s stance as “undemocratic and uncivilized.”
Pradhan stated that Tamil Nadu had initially agreed to implement certain aspects of the NEP and had signed an MoU on 15 March 2025. However, he alleged that a “Super Chief Minister” intervened, leading to a sudden reversal of the decision. The remark has fueled speculation, with Annamalai demanding Stalin to reveal the identity of the person wielding such influence over state policy.
The Union Minister also pointed out that the PM-SHRI scheme, which aims to upgrade schools across India, is being implemented in several non-BJP-ruled states without opposition. Addressing DMK MP Kanimozhi, he urged her to explain to her party members the details of what transpired over the issue.
