‘18 Yrs In Bengaluru But...': Man's Friend Called Kannadigas Biased. Netizens Give ‘Cut Tie' Option
The ongoing Kannada language row in Karnataka has ignited a major debate, particularly in Bengaluru, a city known for its multicultural population. The internet is divided, with some advocating for non-Kannada speakers to learn the language as a gesture of respect towards local culture. Others, however, argue that such expectations are impractical in a multilingual country like India. The debate has quickly extended beyond state borders, sparking strong opinions on language, identity and inclusivity.
With no major resolution to the issue, a Bengaluru resident has revealed how his friend has strongly refused to learn Kannada, even after being in the city for about 18 years. Taking to X, Prajwal Bhat stated that the female friend has particularly called out Kannadigas to be 'biased," prompting Bhat to limit interactions with her.
