@abhi_agarwal4 The issue isn’t about your learning the language; it’s bout signboards.. Unfairness in tax devolution by central govt is another matter entirely; good luck finding a place that buys you more for your tax ₹ and let’s you carry “wouldn’t learn the local language” arrogance!

@debarghya_das “Most food is unhealthy” - laughably inaccurate! You might just have festive dishes in mind, plus I bet you can’t name dishes of more than a couple of states, for you to generalise India! Everyday food is high on lentils, cereal, vegetables and spices….Eating out is rare too!

@RaoSumukh Best managed restaurants in India (world?) are in Karnataka… The hygiene, taste, efficiency, variety (options 4 breakfast & evening snacks) offered by Udupis/Darshinis are unmatched in the VFM tier! Dhabas on highways outta Delhi maybe a close second!
