Karnataka Chief Secretary Shalini Rajneesh has ordered a probe into the delay in passing a pro-Kannada resolution in Belagavi. The directive came after a memorandum was submitted to the Chief Minister's Office by Ashok Chandargi, president of the District Kannada Organisations Action Committee.
The resolution, which aims to promote the Kannada language and culture, has been pending for an extended period, prompting concerns among local Kannada activists. The inquiry will look into the reasons for the delay and identify those responsible.
Background of the Issue
The pro-Kannada resolution is seen as a key demand of language activists in the region. Chandargi's memorandum highlighted the lack of progress and urged immediate action. The Chief Secretary's intervention marks a significant step in addressing the grievances of Kannada organizations.
Next Steps
The probe is expected to be completed within a stipulated timeframe, with findings to be submitted to the state government. Officials have been directed to cooperate fully with the investigation.
