In his 129th episode of Mann Ki Baat, Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised regional language celebrations in Fiji and Dubai. He highlighted the Tamil Day festivities in Fiji, where students showcased their language skills through poems and speeches, demonstrating a strong connection to their heritage. Modi noted that a school in Rakiraki, Fiji, had organized its first Tamil Day celebration last month, emphasizing the importance of promoting the Tamil language among the youth. The Prime Minister also spoke about the 'Kashi Tamil Sanagamam' in Varanasi, where a special emphasis was placed on learning Tamil. Under the theme 'Learn Tamil-Tamil Karakalam,' campaigns were conducted in over 50 schools in Varanasi, promoting the oldest language in the world. Modi expressed his happiness that a new interest in the Tamil language is emerging among the youth and children across the country. Furthermore, Modi commended the 'Kannada Pathshala' initiative in Dubai, where children are taught to read, write, learn, and speak Kannada. The initiative was started by Kannada families who wanted to ensure their children did not drift away from their native language despite being proficient in technology. By promoting regional languages, the Prime Minister emphasized the significance of cultural unity and the 'power of language' in bringing people together.
