Do not get mixed up ! This has nothing to do with National Anthem certain countries have two national anthems and one official language . We can do the same if that is allowed in the constitution. Our constitution recognizes two official languages and one national anthem. So if we want to change  the constitution needs amendment to it . It needs 2/3 votes and a referendum.Official Language does not mean all the things should be in Tamil. It is only recognition of Tamil as medium for official communication.This has nothing to do with national anthem or the flag or any sign, name or song. Certain schools have two school songs but some only one. Official language does not mean everything should be in both languages!</blockquote>
