Kannadiga are strangers in the Kannada land, says Nischalanandanath Swamiji

Nischalanandanath Swamiji addressed the Karnataka Rajyotsava and Karunada Ranga Sambhrama program in the city. He stated that non-Kannadigas are taking away the employment, land, water, and food of Kannadigas. Swamiji expressed concern that the Kannada language is fading, noting that in areas like KR Puram, Electronic City, and Koramangala, Kannada speakers are hard to find. He also demanded that companies prioritize Kannadigas and that students from Kannada medium schools receive 25% reservation in government jobs.
