A heated confrontation recently erupted at a Bengaluru metro station between two women over the usage of Kannada, and the incident was caught on video which has since gone viral. In the footage, a woman clad in a burqa is seen taunting a saree-clad Kannada speaker, delivering a derogatory remark: “Aurat hai (tu) Siddaramaiah ki?” (Are you Siddaramaiah’s woman?)
The verbal altercation escalated quickly, with both women exchanging sharp words in public. Observers to the scene appeared taken aback by the intensity of their exchange. The argument has provoked widespread attention, largely due to its undertones of linguistic and cultural sensitivity.
Since being uploaded online, the video has triggered waves of debate across social and mainstream media. Many commentators have condemned the exchange, arguing it reflects deeper tensions around language identity in Karnataka. Others caution against overreaction, suggesting that isolated incidents should not be blown out of proportion.
