English

Gone are the days when we wanted Hindi and our mother tongue; thre is no need for these languages now. English is the only language which will suffice to exist in the present world controlled by computers.
Everyone has posted his message in English. Why did he not post it in which ever language he gave preference. Practise what you preach first.English has to be learnt and is enough to take you all over for business, pleasure and last not the least and most important is for a living.

What u said is right. u r not fit in karnataka as well as in India. U did well till tenth because u did it in ur mother language. once u switch to other media(engilish) u found( and ur friends) difficulty. This is because of English. U can not blame Kannada for this. U could have suggest other way that teach English as one subject from the primary levell but not as medium to teach other subjects.
For your kind information i also from rural Karnataka and upto 10th my medium was kannada. I did Engineering without tutions or donations. and i am doing well now.
Do not Kill culture just for the sake of personel interest.
Try to understand ur mother first(Unfortunately).
