A prominent Kannada journalist has torn into the government's move to ban Hindi, and raises some straightforward, hard hitting questions: 1) Do all those who are opposing Hindi actually have their own children studying in the state syllabus, so that this policy would apply to their kids? 2) By what right do you get to dictate what our kids should learn? Now, please allow me to add a few questions of my own. 1) Why isn’t the government banning Urdu schools and Madrasas funded by Kannadiga taxpayers? Aren’t Muslims Kannadigas too? If not, why are they living off our taxes? If yes, why aren’t they required to learn to read and write Kannada? 2) If this is about minority rights to preserve their language, why aren’t there as many Tulu or Kodava schools as there are Urdu schools? 3) Even by the definition of a minority, aren’t Hindi speaking people in Karnataka also a linguistic minority? This is exactly why subjects like Education, Agriculture, and Health should be moved to the Central List. Let the state cabinets enjoy watching IPL matches from the VIP lounge instead of meddling in critical sectors.







Regarding recent press coverage








Devotees demanded that the police take criminal action against those who hurt Hindu religious sentiments by conducting an obscene pre-wedding shoot at the ancient Bettada Bhairaveshwara Temple in Sakleshpur. @KarnatakaCops @CSakleshpura @SPHassan2 @RLR_BTM @CMofKarnataka
