But on one side, Kannada is shining in literary circles. But as a household language of citizens of Karnataka, it is dying slowly, particularly in cities like Bangalore and Mysore with the onslaught of English and other languages and inferiority complex of Kannadigaru. A great pity. I would be happier to see Kannada living, growing and shining in the cities and towns instead of awards.

Congrats to Mr C Kambara for winning the Jnanapith Award. He has brought a new dimension by blending the richness of folklore with the dialects of Northern Karnataka. Really it's a matter of pride for all Kannadigas
