 “When the Ukrainian language spoken by three crore people, and the Celtic language spoken by one-and-a-half crore people have Chairs at the prestigious Harvard University, (which has been functioning for more than 380 years) — Tamil, one of the classical languages of the world which has ancient literature dating back to 300 BC, and spoken by eight crore people — should have one too! Other languages like Sanskrit, Hebrew also have Harvard Chair”
