DMK MP Kanimozhi Karunanidhi on August 22, called for AYUSH Secretary, Vaidya Rajesh Kotecha's suspension and demanded disciplinary proceedings against him over his statement on non-Hindi members. Reportedly, in a recent webinar, he had asked the participants who cannot speak Hindi to leave, as he wasn't well versed with English language. Kanimozhi stated that Kotecha asking non-Hindi speakers to leave "speaks volumes about the Hindi domination being imposed. This is highly condemnable".
