Html marquee tag

Is html marquee tag deprecated ?

No, it would have had to been part of the language in the first place before it could be deprecated.

It is simply proprietary.

If yes what are the alternatives for it on the modern browser ?

The best option is: Nice, easy to read motionless test.

Scrolling text is excellent for displaying a lot of information, in a small space, non-interactively.

Web browser windows are neither small, nor non-interactive (we have scrollbars), so the benefits of scrolling text are lost and you are left only with the drawbacks (which are that it is harder to read, and distracting when users are trying to read other parts of the page).

The only standard way to achieve scrolling text (if you still want it, despite the horrible drawbacks) is to use JavaScript to dynamically change CSS to move an element about.
