he government has given the maximum importance to Kannada and there is no question of compromise regarding the Kannada language,said Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai.
Speaking at the silver jubilee celebrations of Karnataka Rakshana Vedike here on Friday,he said the government has shown its bold stand when neighbouring Maharashtra created trouble over the border.
While the statue of Sangolli Rayanna is ready,the statues of Basavanna and Kempe Gowda are getting ready,and those statues will be installed in front of Vidhana Soudha.
These two personalities are the reflection of the culture, literature,heritage,and administration of the Kannadigas.
An employment policy has been formulated and provided 80 percent of reservation for the Kannadigas in A,B,C&D groups.
Adventure in building Vedike
The CM said it was not easy for the Karnataka Rakshana Vedike President Narayanagowda to build the organization and he has been successful in this endeavor.
The journey of several associations and organisations will not last long but the revolution started by Narayanagowda becomes active whenever there is a threat to the Kannada language.
Honest efforts
Bommai complimented the KRV President Narayanagowda for making selfless service to the language without caste,color,religion,or creed differentiation.
He stood firm despite being beaten up by the police in several agitations.He has protected Kannada in the last 25 years and must protect the land,language,and water of Karnataka for another 25 years.
In a system,there must be another system to warn and then only the administrators will be vigilant.
Narayanagowda honestly fought in the Cauvery and Krishna waters row.The Goddess Kannadambe is safe in the hands of Narayanagowda.
