These are some of the fears of people if Mandarin is introduced in CBSC syllabus.
Lastly, learning Chinese in definitely unpatriotic and divide our country children in India into loving and pledging allegiance to Chinese, so much so that India will automatically become part of China in the years to come.
Sharad: Learning Chinese is not for any Indian, not even for those RAW and diplomatic personnel. The biggest fear is that once they learnt the Chinese language, these Indians would point the gun barrels at their own kind when a new war is waged between India and China. This would then be to India's disadvantage. Learning Chinese can make Indians be sympathisers or brain-washed, so Indians at whatever levels, should not be allowed to learn Chinese. Indians should only learn Indian languages.
Most Indians fear that by learning Chinese, India will eventually become a state of China when Indians have fully accepted their language with allegiance to them.
Strange ,,,,either the GOI is completely gone out of their minds or they do not understand how this will affect the security of the nation.It can be easily seen that its easy to change the demographics of a nation by pumping in people as is seen in the north east,then to make them dependant economically by pumping in cheap goods from across the borders and then now to pump in propaganda once they start to learn the language so as it compeletly control their minds and hence the populace of a territory in question, to be easily annexed...I assume they understand what they are doing in all respects,making this available in CBSE schools is making this available thru'out the world where these schools are, Chinese and Mandarin are never going to be a language for business for a long time in future even though china maybe progressing as a economic powerhouse.
While learning Chinese is already a trend in the U.S., this should not be followed by India blindly. India has all the reasons not to allow their kids to learn Chinese, which in worst case scenario of another Indo-China war, Indians who learnt Chinese may turn their gun barrels to their own kind and that could be fatal. Let us keep Indian languages intact for Indian children. Jai Hind.
There were some more interesting worries which I could not locate. One feared that if children learn Chinese then they will turn pro Chinese and turn agains us. As if the Chinese will hypnotise through their language. Somebody was worried about the trade in the North East area. They were all classic jokes.
