Kannadigas forcing others to learn kannada is the same as Hindi people forcing others to learn Hindi

These are outcomes of channeling the energy in wrong directions. And not to mention class differences making a certain section feel highly insecure. Not a single one of my Kannadiga friends share the sentiments of these 'protesters' - but then they are all relatively successful and hardworking corporate professionals. Give these section enough jobs with secure wages and all this stuff will go away.

Bro just learn the local language, the only reason anyone's being frisky about people not doing that is cuz the locals have been disrespected for not knowing English/ Hindi, that's the problem and you've gotta come around and help, not trigger people and then crib when they come with pitchforks

They are forced to learn, if the person has to move to lets say delhi, at least broken hindi will be needed to survive

Just like India doesn't have one language similarly even karnataka doesn't have one language only. There are 150 languages in Karnataka alone. How many have you learnt?

They were destroying boards, brand logos in English - third wave coffee, starbucks.

Hindi wasn't even in picture this time around. It was already removed from a lot of boards a while back.

Once English is gone, not sure what they'll move on to next. Signs?

The language politics is the fall out of the failed policies of last 70 years. Ask yourself a simple question, if you had a choice will you stay in a unknown City or go back to your hometown?

I manage with the broken kannada I have learnt, trust me it does help. This might be taken in a different way but its okay to put a little effort and learn the basic, if you look at japan, if you go and work there, you are expected to learn the language and understand their culture

And how many kannadigas forced you to speak kannada? Hardly few because most of them are too busy in their lives to put food in the table. And don't pretend that other ethnic groups don't force, I have seen how people force others to speak Hindi and often ask others if they are indian etc.

'If kannadigas want outsiders to learn kannada, they should be okay with others wanting them to learn Hindi or any other language when they step out of Karnataka.'

And who is restricting them? Hindi is a compulsory language from 1st to 10th in Karnataka state board and it has been like this since 1962. This is what happens when you are ignorant of your surroundings and still babble ignorance.

Also its funny how you believe that people never force english/hindi and invalidate others experience whilst you think that your experience is supreme or universal.

Cancelled two autos ( because they had babu in their surname) .. ban kannadigas .. let them break things for 500 rs per day and parade. Until they realise its neither bloom, prestige, starbucks, thirdwave coffee, Kanadigga hovernment that would get affected, its their employment that does in the longer run.
