Language controversy is nothing new. The ongoing debate over the Kannada language has only heated over time. The viral video has triggered a wave of reactions by Kannadigas. A user said, “They know the answer still they act.” Another user wrote, “Even a small kid knows that Bengaluru is in Karnataka, All you need is elementary education to know these facts.” A third user commented, “I think it reflects more on the state of education and knowledge of our nation. I am sure people will fail to link other cities, culture and language as well, unfortunately!” Meanwhile, a fourth user remarked, “Send them back to school.”
A section of netizens, however, made sarcastic comments on the video. A user said, “It should be the most common language of India Hindi, because Bglr is a global city.” Another noted, “Its Urdu.” A third user said, “If you ask which is official language of Mumbai here in blore, most will say hindi . Not everyone is aware it’s Marathi. So it’s ok.” One of the users even said, “Fact is they talk right… no official language.”
