When I hear the term Kannada, I cannot express the joy in my heart. As of now if we look around we can see that the land and water of Karnataka has already been stolen away, soon there may be a time even when the Kannada language may lose its existence. Let us all be proud of being Kannadigas and let us all strive to maintain the rich heritage of our mother land Karnataka"
