“A Japanese kid speaking cleaner Kannada than half the people who've lived here 10+ years,” the caption of the post read. “It's funny how people who come from another country put in effort to learn the local language out of respect. Meanwhile, a chunk of internal migrants act like Kannada is optional DLC,” it added.

Netizens have flooded the comment section with mixed responses. Some defended migrants, saying, “It's easier to learn a new language as a kid…PEOPLE WHO'VE LIVED HERE FOR 10+YEARS are getting up, going to office, coming back and crashing.”
