Bengaluru's growing language tensions have prompted a local tech entrepreneur to pack up and move his company's operations to Pune.

Kaushik Mukherjee, founder of a mid-sized tech firm, announced that the company will shut down its Bengaluru office within six months and shift its base to Pune, citing increasing pressure on non-Kannada-speaking employees as the main reason for the move.

Mukherjee described the current environment in Bengaluru as "uncomfortable" for many staff members who do not speak Kannada.

"It's unfortunate that language has become a barrier at the workplace. We want a safe, inclusive environment for everyone, and right now, Bengaluru isn't that place for us," he said.

The founder, Kaushik Mukherjee, said the move was prompted by what he termed "language nonsense," adding that he did not want his non-Kannada-speaking employees to become "victims" of the ongoing linguistic climate in Bengaluru.

The idea, he revealed, was originally raised by his staff, whose concerns he chose to support.

However, some online reactions from Bengaluru locals were less sympathetic. "Good riddance!" said one social media user, reflecting a vocal group that supports stricter Kannada language policies in the city.

"We're proud of Kannada. But when companies start leaving, we need to ask: are we pushing too hard?" said a tech policy analyst based in the city.

Some welcomed the entrepreneur's choice, praising his focus on employee wellbeing. Others suggested alternate destinations like Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, and Indore, noting their inclusive business cultures.

I am all for accepting migrants but they need to be given appropriate visa and a different citizenship compared to andhra people.

Even for their kids to get andhra citizenship ,atleast one parent should be pure andhra.
