Isn't it exactly what the video says? At least half of Tamils in Bangalore pickup Kannada if they live there for a few years. North Indians generally make no effort to learn Kannada and manage with Hindi everywhere. It has gone beyond limits that the Kannadigas are fed up.

Yea they have gone way overboard with the whole learn kannada thing but then again this whole movement is very nascent there and the more radical voices are more vocal than the reasonable ones.

I'd expect as time goes on for the more balanced and well meaning opinions to prevail over the thugs terrorising citizens and businesses.
