Mysore/Mysuru: G.L. Tripurantaka, ‘Mysuru Mithra’ columnist, was conferred ‘Rayabhaari Kannada Lekhaka’ award while writer Lakshmi Satish was conferred with ‘Rayabhaari Praani Daya’ award at the Kannada Rajyotsava celebrations organised by Mysore Ambassador Lions Club at a private hotel here recently.
Speaking on the occasion, Tripurantaka said “Though we may learn many languages for livelihood, Kannada should be the language of our heart. We are tending to forget our mother-tongue because of love for other languages. Children can best understand mother-tongue more than any other language.”
