Tamil & Sanskrit

if you would like to know which is older

Tamil is the oldest language in India followed by Sanskrit a language created by the aryans which is also considered Classical due to political indo-aryan back up.

Hmmm intresting question dude.......

If you take a deep look in Indian history, you can seperate them in 2 ways, one is the native In which Indian History which very much backs up Tamil language and culture & on the other hand is the political indo-aryan view based history which will promote sanskit and the aryan teachings, in the recent time, aryan invasion is said to be false and such by some leaders mainly due to the fact that aryan invasion presence proves Sanskrit being on an inferior position as a language of some intruders so by proving it false it can have a permenent stand in India.
Sanskrit and Tamil are the classical ones in India but when looking further detailed on which is older one must be unbias to accpet the fcat that Tamil is older, it has been dated back more than 5000bc, sanskrit do not hold such a timeline

Sanskrit.

EDIT: Sanskrit dates back to 1500 BCE and it also bears close similarity to other classical languages including Greek, Latin, Iranian, and Estonian. The earliest known instances of Dravidian (the ancestor of Tamil), by contrast, date back to 500 BCE.

Those who think Sanskrit is younger than Tamil are quite mistaken.

Tamil is Classical
Sanskrit only arrived later into India when the aryans stepped in unlike Tamil which dates back way much older than Sanskrit.

Btw in India Tamil and Sanskrit is considered the classical languages of India and Hindi being the national language

First classical language announced by the Govt. of India was Tamil in 2004.
Then Sanskrit was announced in 2005.

After that Telugu and Kannada were announced classical in 2008.

Out of these, three languages are Dravidian (Indian origin) and Sanskrit is the only one language which is Indo-European in origin. However Sanskrit does not fit into classical language criteria given by scholars as it is not a stand alone language.

It's Sanskrit, though not many people in India know this language anymore.
