However, this time he is embroiled in controversies due to one of his statements. He has said such a thing regarding Hindi which can create an uproar.

Indian team's former experienced off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has given a big statement regarding Hindi language in a private college program. Ashwin said that Hindi is not the national language of India. Ashwin asked the students if anyone was interested in asking questions in Hindi if they did not know how to speak English or Tamil. Let us tell you that World Hindi Day is celebrated on 10 January.

During this, Ashwin raised the issue of language in India. He saw how people reacted after speaking the word Hindi. Ashwin said during his address, 'I think I should say that Hindi is not our national language, it is the official language.' It is known that there is always discussion regarding Hindi and Tamil language and it has been a sensitive issue in Tamil Nadu.

Ashwin gave controversial statement

Ashwin first said that those who want to listen in English should 'cheer'. During this period there was peace among the students. After some time he asked the same question for Tamil. After this the students started cheering. At last when Ashwin asked for Hindi, some voices came. Ashwin asked again. When the voice of many students did not come, he made a big statement. He said, 'Hindi is not our national language. Hindi is the official language. After this the sounds of cheering started coming again. This video of Ashwin went viral on social media.

Reactions on social media

Social media is divided into two factions regarding Ashwin's statement. While Tamil speaking people are praising Ashwin, Hindi speaking people are targeting him. At the same time, some people are also advising Ashwin that he should not have done such a thing regarding the language because Hindi is a widely used language.

 

Some people believe that Ashwin has only presented the facts, while others are calling it an unnecessary controversy. Will Ashwin's statement really create controversy, or will it be limited to social media only? It will be interesting to see. But once again, Ashwin is in the headlines because of his words.
