A man from Karnataka has ignited a heated debate online by declaring that non-Kannada speakers in Bengaluru will be treated as "outsiders". In a social media post, he asserted that the city "belongs to Kannadigas" and warned that those who don't speak or attempt to learn Kannada will face exclusion. The statement has sparked concerns about linguistic chauvinism and regionalism in India's IT hub. The post has gone viral, with many condemning the divisive language and others supporting the call to promote Kannada.
