siddaramaiah, too dived into the 3 language debate, saying he will oppose any attempts of the centre to impose Hindi. BJP MP from Bengaluru south, Tejaswi Surya has also jumped in on the conversation suggesting that children should learn 5 languages including Sanskrit, which, he claims, is the 'mother of all languages'.
