In a state like Karnataka, where language has been a deeply emotional issue, the recent mandate by the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government to make proficiency in Urdu a criterion for Anganwadi teachers in Mudigere and Chikkamagaluru has stirred a fresh wave of controversy.
The decision, which has already sparked protests and political outcry, not only threatens to alienate a section of the state's population but also risks further damaging the delicate social fabric of Karnataka.

The upcoming delimitation exercise in India has ignited a fierce debate between the central government and southern states. The process, which involves redrawing Lok Sabha and state assembly constituencies based on population, could significantly impact the political representation of states like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, and Andhra Pradesh. With northern states experiencing higher population growth, delimitation may shift parliamentary seats in their favor, potentially reducing the South’s influence. Leaders like MK Stalin and Siddaramaiah are rallying against the move, calling it an unfair punishment for states that effectively controlled population growth.
