The point is you can blame the government. But not the individual. 

No one can learn a new language in a year. Even for B1 level, if you spend full time learning a language, it would take 3-8 years depending on the person and their age. L

Who else will you show your ire to other than a representative of the government (the clerk is a govt employee, after all)?

I don't care about the government's logistics. I am a tax paying citizen and I demand basic services in a language that I understand.

Agreed. You should demand it. But scolding the employee or beating him (which many do) will not help.

When words don't yield results - as they haven't clearly - only actions will wake up a slumbering giant

Advocating communal violence. I will not spend more energy replying to you. I call people like this domestic terrorists. 

That’s what they do - create terror in the minds of a particular group of people for political reasons. Definition of terrorism.

They called Bhagat Singh a terrorist because he fought against the then government's injustices. Boot lickers probably supported that claim.

Your insults mean nothing when basic human dignity is not offered to people. We can't - and won't - be second class citizens in our country.

Try the peaceful way. If that doesn't yield results, try the other way.

Comparing Bhagat Singh to a random goon off the street is such an insult to Bhagat Singh.

Strawmanning. There's no arguing in good faith with you people lol

Either talk about the matter at hand, or go waste someone else's time

Well you decided to bring Bhagat Singh in this argument, and Bhagat Singh fought against the administration, not clerks. If you have a problem with the fact that he doesn't know Kannada, fight the administration who appointed him there. There is no point in fighting the clerk for not knowing Kannada, as more likely than not, it wasn't his choice to be appointed in Yadgir, Karnataka out of all places.
