Adityanath said languages such as Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengali or Marathi can become the cornerstone of national unity.He said the Uttar Pradesh government was teaching languages such as Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengali and Marathi to its students.”Does this diminish Uttar Pradesh in any way? Does it make UP look small?” he asked.The chief minister said everyone believes that Hindi should be respected, but India has adopted the three-language formula.”This three-language formula ensures that regional languages also get the same respect.Every language has its own speciality which becomes the cornerstone of national unity,” Adityanath said.He said every regional language has its folk traditions and stories that bring out the diversity of the nation and strengthen it.Adityanath said the Kashi Tamil Sangamam initiative is the best example of this as it brings together India’s oldest languages Tamil and Sanskrit.
