Rupee Symbol Controversy: Designer Speaks Up
Tamil Nadu government ne apne budget material mein Rupee symbol ki jagah Tamil letter “Ru” use kiya, jiske baad controversy ho gayi. Rupee symbol ke designer D Udaya Kumar ne is mudde par apni rai di hai.
Designer ne diya jawaab
Udaya Kumar, jinhone 2009 mein Rupee symbol design kiya tha, ne kaha ki unhe apne kaam par garv hai. Unhone Tamil Nadu government ke faisle par koi tippani karne se mana kar diya. Unka kehna hai ki ek designer ko aisi challenges ke liye taiyar rehna chahiye.
Kya yeh design ka apmaan hai?
Kumar ne kaha ki woh is move ko apmaan ya disregard nahi mante. Unka kehna hai ki har design successful ya appreciated nahi hota, aur criticism ka samna karna padta hai. Designer ko ise positive tareeke se lena chahiye aur aage badhna chahiye.
Design ka maksad kya tha?
Kumar ne bataya ki unka maksad simple aur universal design banana tha jo impactful ho. Unhone socha bhi nahi tha ki aaj aisa controversy hoga.
BJP ne kiya DMK par vaar
Tamil Nadu BJP chief K Annamalai ne DMK ko “stupid” kaha kyunki unhe pata nahi tha ki symbol ek Tamilian ne design kiya tha, jo DMK ke former MLA ke bete hain. DMK ne iska jawaab dete hue kaha ki woh Rupee symbol ke khilaf nahi hai, balki Tamil bhasha ko promote karna chahti hai.
Kisne banaya Rupee Symbol?
Udaya Kumar, jinke pita N Dharmalingam ek former DMK MLA hain, ne kaha ki yeh sirf ek coincidence hai. Unhone National Education Policy (NEP) par chal rahe controversy par bhi apni rai di.
NEP Controversy par kya kaha?
Kumar ne kaha ki is mudde par alag-alag views hain, aur woh sirf design aspects par hi baat karna chahenge.
Rupee Symbol kaise bana?
IIT Bombay se padhe Kumar ne 2009 mein Rupee symbol ke liye national contest jeeta tha. 2010 mein Manmohan Singh government ne is symbol ko adopt kiya. Unhone Devanagari ‘Ra’ aur Roman ‘R’ ko milakar yeh symbol banaya tha.
Controversy kaise shuru hui?
Yeh controversy tab shuru hui jab CM MK Stalin ne NEP ke khilaf chal rahe andolan ke beech naya logo share kiya.
Kya hai BJP ka kehna?
Annamalai ne kaha ki “Ru” Tamil bhasha ka letter hai, lekin yeh national Rupee symbol ki jagah nahi le sakta. Unhone aarop lagaya ki DMK center ke saath “language war” badhana chahti hai.
Center ne bhi kiya virodh
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman ne kaha ki yeh faisla “secessionist sentiments” ko badhawa deta hai. Unhone poocha ki DMK ne pehle apni reservation kyun nahi batayi.
