Comments

Recently, while speaking in Andhra pradesh , our Vice President Venkaiah Naidu said Telugu must be compulsory in AP & Karnataka is following his advice , GOOD move , ALL should welcome it.

If someone has no use of Kannada, why should the language be forced on him or her to learn ? Like Army employees children.

First enroll K.J. George, Tanvir Sait and all those ministers who are bad in Kannada. Not only speaking but also reading & writing. Many ministers Kannada speaking style is so bad, they speak horrible Kannada. Teach them good and decent Kannada first. Many minister and Government officials speak Telugu better than Kannada. You go anywhere, you will see Telugu speakers in Vidhan Souda also. This is the state of Kannada. Our loving Kannada. Our mother Kannada.

Local languages should get prominents. It should be promoted

Siddaramaiah govt doing great.. he should be reelected for the next time also

Many pro bjp kannadigas opposed while Kerala govt took same decision. They wanted to remove kasargod that

Good decision... all states should take the same decision to promote mother tongue
