Bengaluru: At a time when there are heated debates on ‘Hindi imposition’, the State Government has decided to observe this year as ‘Kannada Kayaka Varsha’ (Nov. 1, 2020 to Oct. 31, 2021) to promote usage of Kannada in all Government Offices from the Ministry-level to the Gram Panchayat-level and also in public spaces.
While the Government’s language policy makes it mandatory to use Kannada in official communication, this programme would ensure its implementation. The programme would be effective for a year, in retrospect from Nov. 1, this year.
