Karnataka Congress leader joins #SayNotoSanskrit trend, opposes construction of Sanskrit University in state!

It seems like opposing every NDA government's decision and misleading people has become a habit of the Congress party. As in the latest development, Karnataka Congress leader A N Nataraja Gowda opposed the construction of the Sanskrit University and called it useless.

 

The Karnataka government has allotted 100 acres of land to build the permanent campus of Karnataka Sanskrit University. Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai laid the foundation of the permanent campus of the Karnataka Sanskrit University in Magadi on January 03, 2021.

 

Opposing the decision, Islamists started raising their voice against the decision on social media with #SayNotoSanskrit. PFI Karnataka state President Yasir Hasan while saying that any ‘foreign’ languages will not be tolerated in the land of Basavaraja requested people to resist this act of ‘Sanskrit/Hindi Imposition’. Adding fuel to that, Dravidian circles have linked the promotion of Sanskrit in the state to alleged Hindi imposition.

 

 

Joining that trend, Congress spokesperson took to his official social media handles to pen his disregard for the move. The Congress leader wrote, "We are observing the conspiracy of bigotry, the teaching of Sanskrit to Kannada children. Instead of boosting the tourism sector of this taluk govt is allotting land to useless Sanskrit university.

"We need skill university, not Sanskrit. This is unacceptable. They only want to promote Hindi and Sanskrit," Nataraj Gowda said while criticising the BJP government for the move.
