State-run insurer Life Insurance Corporation or LIC Tuesday blamed "technical problem" as Tamil Nadu protested the website's switch to Hindi in the state, terming it a "linguistic tyranny" and pushed for its immediate rollback.
"Our corporate website was not shuffling the language page due to some technical problem. The issue is resolved now, and the website is available in English/Hindi language. Inconvenience caused is deeply regretted," the LIC said in a clarification as the row escalated.
